For the second time in 2017, a Kennesaw State University student was robbed on campus, officials say.

The student reported he was jumped by two men on Monday, while he was taking out the trash, Channel 2 Action News reported.

The university wouldn’t release whether a weapon was used in the attack, what was stolen or the student’s name.

Another student was robbed at gunpoint in July outside his dorm at the school’s Austin Residential Complex, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported.

The student was loading items into his car when two men carrying handguns approached him. The men demanded the student hand over his wallet and gun, according to an alert sent to students.

In April, a man wearing an ankle bracelet robbed a KSU student and his roommate at the Greenhouse Patio Apartments near the university on George Busbee Parkway, Cobb County police spokeswoman Officer Alicia Chilton said.

The robber forced his way into the apartment with a gun and stole video game consoles and cash, police said. During a brief scuffle, the robber fired a few shots and ran away.
