Level 2 Sex Offender Charged After Hiding in Northeastern Women’s Bathroom

The case spotlights campus safety after a flagged offender on GPS reached a dorm restroom despite a no‑trespass order.

Overview

  • Brandon Awogboro, 29, was arrested Wednesday after staff reported a man hiding in a women’s stall at Northeastern’s Stetson East and an emergency door alarm sounded.
  • Prosecutors say he peered under a stall divider at a worker and then fought campus police outside on Huntington Avenue, attempting to bite officers and putting his mouth on a holstered gun.
  • He pleaded not guilty to trespassing, resisting arrest, assault and battery on a police officer, and disorderly conduct, and a judge set $500 bail with orders to stay away from the victim and the university.
  • The court revoked his bail in a separate Roxbury case and kept him on GPS monitoring, and a pretrial hearing on the new charges is set for May 26.
  • Awogboro is a Level 2 registrant on probation for a 2024 breaking‑and‑entering and assault case and had a prior no‑trespass order for Northeastern, and the district attorney praised the reporting employee and noted no officer injuries.
