A student received a phone call from an unknown man who pretended to know her at Kaibab-Huachuca Residence Hall, 922 E. Fourth St., late Friday night, reports stated.
The man told her his name, and the student knows a few people by the name so she didn't think the call was suspicious at first, reports stated.
He asked her if she wanted to do anything that night and she agreed. When the man asked her where she wanted to meet, the student became suspicious.
The student asked the man who he was and he repeated the same name with no last name.
He asked the student if he could come pick her up, but he didn't know where she lived and the student said no. He asked her what she would do if he came anyway and the student said she would call the police and hung up, reports stated.
The man called back approximately two minutes later and told her the pajamas she was wearing were cute. The student said she wasn't wearing any pajamas, reports stated.
The caller's voice was casual up to that point, but then it became serious.
The man asked the student why she was "being a bitch," and asked her how she expected to meet people if she wouldn't hang out, reports stated.
The man asked again if he could pick her up and she said no and hung up.
The student was able to trace the call, but police were unable to reach the man, reports stated.
The student said she could hear several male voices in the background when the man called, but did not think they were involved, reports stated.
Police told her to contact UAPD if she received any more phone calls and told her to dial *57 to trace the call in the future, reports stated.
Police have no suspects or witnesses.
A $2,000 Apple laptop was stolen from a room in the Art building, 1031 N. Olive Road, Friday afternoon, reports stated.

Police saw many green, brown and clear colored glass shards and broken bottles in the parking lot.
The employee said she wanted the incident documented because the same incident happened the week before, reports stated.
Police asked a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity, whose house is next door to the chapel, if he knew anything about the glass.
The member said he did not and that he would ask other residents if they knew anything, reports stated.
