RALEIGH, N.C. — Two North Carolina State University students were robbed at gunpoint early Friday morning as they were walking along Hillsborough Street, campus police said.

The women told police that they were near Logan Court around 1:15 a.m. when four men, at least two of whom had a gun, stopped them and took their cellphones, wallets and book bags.

No one was hurt, police said.

They are reminding students to always walk in well-lit areas at night and to use the campus' Safety Escort service.
