UC SAN DIEGO POLICE DEPARTMENT March 20, 2026 ALL ACADEMICS, STAFF, AND STUDENTS AT UC SAN DIEGO Timely Warning – Motor Vehicle Theft On March 20, 2026, at about 8:00 pm, the UC San Diego Police Department received a report of a motor vehicle theft of an orange Subaru Crosstrek. The theft occurred in front of the Price Center on Matthews Lane. The suspect is a male adult (see photo). At this time, the suspect is not in custody. The report is currently under investigation by the UC San Diego Police Department. If you have information that could be helpful in this investigation, please call the UC San Diego Police Department at (858) 534-4357 or submit an online tip at https://police.ucsd.edu/services/anonymous.html. The remainder of this message provides general information about preventing and reporting a motor vehicle theft and is not necessarily related to this incident. If you are the victim of a motor vehicle theft: Call or text the UC San Diego Police Department immediately at 9-1-1 and be prepared to provide the following: License plate number and vehicle year, make, model, and color; Date, time, and location you last saw your vehicle; Date and time you discovered your vehicle missing; and Advise if you subscribe to a vehicle tracking service, such as Lojack or OnStar. General safety considerations to prevent a motor vehicle theft: Always lock your vehicle, close all windows and sunroof, and take your keys. Never leave your vehicle running when unattended. Park in busy, well-lit areas. Pick a parking spot where there is a lot of activity. Auto thieves prefer breaking into cars in isolated areas. Alarms or anti-theft devices work. Thieves are usually looking for the easiest target. If your car has an alarm or other anti-theft device, it could act as a deterrent but don’t make the common mistake of assuming that because you have an alarm or anti-theft device, thieves won’t break in. Install a vehicle tracking and location system that can be activated after the vehicle is reported as stolen. Don’t leave spare keys in or on your vehicle. An experienced thief knows all the hiding places. Store spare keys elsewhere, such as your wallet or purse. Report suspicious activity immediately to the UC San Diego Police Department by calling or texting 9-1-1. What is this Notice? This notice is being provided to you to comply with the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act. Timely Warnings are intended to prevent similar crimes and to provide information that will assist community members in protecting themselves.

How the first alert is built

To check this alert, SuperGrok Heavy 4.5 (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.

  • Impactpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    theft of an orange Subaru Crosstrek states completed property loss.

    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.
