The San Marcos Police Department is investigating an aggravated sexual assault and burglary of habitation that occurred at the same apartment complex last week.
Because of the frequency, some college students are concerned. That includes junior Sophia Castelhano, who has lived there since the beginning of the year. Last fall, she says that someone even tried to break into her place, now she can't wait to move.

"I'm ready to leave this place for sure," said Castelhano. "This is the second or third time something like this has happened in two weeks, so it is a little concerning, especially for me since we have had people try to break in before."
Police are asking the public to stay vigilant and to keep their doors and windows locked.
