The University of Arizona Police Department is investigating an assault that occurred on-campus near the Highland Tunnel Friday.
Police say an 18-year-old man was walking near the tunnel when he was hit by one of the suspects and fell to the ground. One suspect straddled the victim while the other suspect searched the victim for valuables.

UAPD released the following descriptions of the suspects:
Suspect 1: Male, possibly Hispanic, slender build, 18-22 years of age, brown short hair, with a possible facial tattoo, wearing a white t-shirt and black shorts 110-130 pounds.
