Bike theft is among the most common crimes on CSU campuses, with an average of 190 bikes reported stolen each year. Bikes are more often stolen at beginning of the school year, particularly around residence halls where bikes are parked overnight.
In response to the needs of the University community, the Colorado State University Police Department and the Health Network are partnering with UCHealth to bring a co-responder mental health program to support CSUPD on calls.
About 25 first responders from across the nation will spend a week at Canvas Stadium for emergency preparedness training.
Since the start of the program a year ago, CSUPD has made more than 12 felony arrests directly connected to bike thefts on Main Campus.
Scammers are contacting individuals on campus with COVID-19 ploys, such as offering tests, vaccines or other products.
Alisha Zellner's national initiative that brings awareness to injustices in the criminal justice system includes a local community bike ride that she plans to hold every July.

Colorado State University Police Cpl. Alisha Zellner will ride her bike nearly 300 miles in three days in May in memory of officers lost in the line of duty.
Scammers are exceptionally creative and sophisticated, and scams are perpetuated through phone calls, texts, emails, social media and sometimes in person.
As we approach an election year, we anticipate increased political engagement on our main campus.
