Robbery investigation update near campus

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.

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. "Police are responding" in the original post, and later "Police have not yet located the four men", identify law enforcement as the responding authority.

  Who is sending the alert and who is responding. People act faster on a message from a clearly identifiable, credible sender, such as a named department, the police, or a branded alert system, than on an anonymous notice. A branded signature counts.

• Hazardpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  Present, 25 of 25. The threat is explicit: "Armed robbery reported" by four suspects, and the 7:33 p.m. update confirms "A handgun was displayed during the robbery".

  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 robbery is placed "in the 4700 block of University Way", with the later note that "The University Way area is open".

  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.

• Guidanceabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  Absent, 0 of 25 voting present. Unanimous: every entry describes suspects, the SUV and search status, and at no point are recipients asked to avoid, secure, shelter or call anything.

  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 voting present. The text forecloses it: the 7:33 p.m. update states "No one was injured", and no potential consequence or severity is offered anywhere.

  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.
