An employee at African American Student Affairs, 1322 E. First St., reported receiving a suspicious phone call Thursday.

The employee said he took a call at 8:43 a.m. from an angry male who said there would be a fund-raiser in Tucson for Marcia Clark to help her cope with the abuse she took during the trial.

The employee listened for three to four minutes as the man became continually more upset.

At the end of the call, the man said, "You know that Jewish blood was spilled on the streets of Brentwood and it will be avenged somehow." He then hung up.

The man was in his 20s with a slight unknown accent. He used no racial slurs and made no threats directly to the employee.
