A woman’s face was cut by
an unknown assailant Tuesday
afternoon as she was walking on
Liberty Street, according to the
Ann Arbor Police Department.
The woman, who is in her early
20’s, said she was walking down
the street wearing headphones
and was unaware if her attacker
addressed her before cutting her
face.
AAPD Sheriff Patrick Ouellette
said the woman was walking from
Angell Hall to Starbucks, and was
attacked after leaving the cafe
while headed eastbound on Liberty
Street towards the Michigan
Theatre. He could not confirm
whether the woman is a University
of Michigan student.
“She was walking up the
sidewalk when the subject came up
from behind her and scratched her
left cheek with a safety pin he was
holding in his hand,” Ouellette said.
The suspect then ran out
towards State Street. He was
described as a white male in his 40s
wearing a black baseball cap and
a dark colored hoodie with dark
sweatpants. He could not confirm
a motive.
“There was no conversation
between the victim and the
suspect, so it was unknown why
he came up to her,” Ouellette said.
“Why he did this, we don’t know.”
He added that the victim’s
injuries were minimal, and the
superficial wound over her cheek
didn’t require stitches.
Ouellette said AAPD will
pass the case on to their detective
division to follow up on the case.

BLOOD BAT TLE
CAROLYN GEARIG/Daily
LSA senior Maddie Luros pours water on the chalk political slogans that Victor Sedlak, who stated he was a former student at Michigan State Univer-
sity, is in the process of writing as he stops to talk to another student on the Diag Tuesday.
Tuesday
afternoon
on
the Diag, a man wrote both
President-elect Donald Trump
and Democratic presidential
nominee
Hillary
Clinton’s
campaign slogans in chalk
with the aim of sending a
message
about
oppression
people face for expressing
political viewpoints in the
current climate.
The man, Victor Sedlak, who
stated he was a former student
at Michigan State University,
said he first wrote Trump’s
campaign
slogan,
“Make
America Great Again,” and
then
Clinton’s
campaign
slogan, “Stronger Together,”
on the Diag to gauge how
people would react and
illustrate how students of
minority political views can
face discrimination.
“People
harassed
me,”
Sedlak said. “The general
message is you can be
conservative with liberals
and no one is probably going
to hurt you, and you can be
liberal with conservatives
and no one is probably going
to hurt you. They won’t hurt
you, but they will sure as
shit discriminate against
you.”
On
Sunday
night,
hundreds
of
University
of
Michigan
community
members signed a petition
condemning recent protests
and vigils held on campus, as
well as statements made by
University administrators,
over the election of Donald
Trump for president. Over
300 signed the petition as
of Sunday night, showing
