Timely Warning - Burglary The Lehigh University Police Department (LUPD) responded to a report on Sunday, 2/11/24, at 11:21 am., by a Lehigh student of a burglary that occurred on 2/10/24 at 02:30 am. The student reported that they saw an unidentified male who had entered the Chi Psi fraternity and was possibly trying to gain access to a freezer containing food. Limited information was available at the time of the report. The individual left the premises without interacting with the residents and no one was harmed. Lehigh University police are investigating and have developed the following information: -The suspect was described to be a male in his 20s, between 5'-8" and 5'-10" tall, with short dark hair and wearing a black hoodie. -The suspect ran to a nearby parking lot and entered a silver or grey four-door sedan, possibly a Nissan Altima or Maxima. See photo: https://www2.lehigh.edu/sites/www2/files/2024-02/2024-000456%20Vehicle.JPG LUPD is working to determine any damages or missing property and an investigation is ongoing. Anyone who can provide additional information should call 610-758-4200. The LUPD offers a number of safety resources, and the HawkWatch safety app allows you to make quick contact with our dispatchers.

How the first alert is built

To check this alert, Claude Opus 5 (an AI) read it in full 25 separate times, independently. Each read decided whether the message answers each of the six questions and gave a short reason. A final reviewer then weighed all 25 and wrote the plain-English verdict you see when you open a row. The score (for example 22/25) is how many reads agreed; the 25 individual reads are tucked underneath if you want to check them.

    What the threat actually is. A complete warning names the specific danger, such as a shooter, a fire, a tornado, or a gas leak, rather than a vague emergency, because people decide what to do based on what they are facing.

  • Locationpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Present, 25 of 25. The Chi Psi fraternity is named as the scene, with a nearby parking lot given as where the suspect fled.

    Where the threat is. Saying whether danger is in a specific building, a part of campus, or area-wide lets people judge their own proximity and choose a safe direction. Without a where, a warning is hard to act on precisely.

  • Guidancepresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Present, 25 of 25. Readers are told that 'Anyone who can provide additional information should call 610-758-4200', alongside LUPD safety resources and the HawkWatch app.

    The protective action to take. A clear, specific instruction, such as shelter in place, evacuate, avoid the area, or run-hide-fight, drives faster and more correct protective behavior than describing the threat alone.

  • Impactabsent0/25

    Final assessment

    Absent, 0 of 25 read it as present. The text says the individual left 'without interacting with the residents and no one was harmed', and no potential harm is described.

    What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.
