University of Ottawa students living in campus residences say they are worried and “uncomfortable” after a sexual assault in the Stanton dormitory on Sunday.
Ottawa police charged a teenage boy with one count each of sexual assault and break and enter early Sunday morning.
He was arrested after police responded to a report of someone going door to door in the residence trying to enter rooms. The suspect entered eight rooms, and tried to enter more than 50.
Students living in the university’s residence buildings say they are making sure to lock their doors after learning of the incident.
“It’s kind of scary thinking that you have to constantly lock your door, even when you’re in it,” said Becca Bouchey, who lives on the same floor in Stanton where the assault allegedly occurred.

Stanton Residence is one of three buildings that make up the University of Ottawa’s main residential complex, located on University Private, a loop the west side of the campus.
Bouchey and her roommate, Danielle Figueiredo, said someone knocked on their door that night, then left after finding it locked.
“I’ll probably lock my door more often,” said Bouchey.
Students in residence “probably shouldn’t have to lock our door,” said Figueiredo, adding “I trust the people on my floor.”
“It’s scary, and I know that’s not the first time it’s happened,” said Roslin Sinclair. “I’m in the (90 University Private) residence, and stuff like that has happened before.”
Sinclair said she and her roommate were harassed by a man who repeatedly entered their room at night earlier in the school year.
“He’d come barging in at two, three in the morning. Eventually, we talked to our (community advisor) and he stopped,” she said.
The University of Ottawa has increased its security measures since the incident on Sunday, spokeswoman Caroline Milliard told the Ottawa Citizen.
Those measures are in addition to the extra security routinely provided during weekend nights, and restrictions on who can enter the dormitories at night, she said.
“I’m not entirely sure what (the university) could do differently,” said Matthew Greber, a first-year chemical engineering student who lives in the Marchand residence building. “Maybe have more cameras set up so that they can catch the people before it happens.”
Mohamed Ibrahim, another student who lives in a University of Ottawa residence, said he believes the alleged offender should have been kept in custody after his arrest.
The suspect was released on a promise to appear in court and with conditions to protect the community, police said.
