Several University of West Georgia students were targeted by robbers on campus early Sunday morning.

University police said two men knocked a student unconscious near the fountain at the Carrollton school’s community center around 2:50 a.m. The student was being treated for injuries.

In a separate incident, three people tried to rob several students at 4:45 a.m., according to university police. The students weren’t injured.

The three suspects were arrested, and police said they also may have been involved in an unrelated assault on two students at a convenience store earlier in the morning.
