TUPD investigating sexual assault in fraternity

The Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) is investigating a report of a sexual assault that may have occurred in a fraternity house over the weekend, it said in an e-mail to the Tufts community last night.

An investigation into the incident is ongoing, and no suspect has been apprehended, TUPD said in the e-mail.

TUPD declined to provide further information to the Daily.

The presidents of all fraternities on campus individually told the Daily last night that they had no additional knowledge about the incident. Inter-Greek Council President Luke Metcalf and Interfraternity Council President Alex Stein, both juniors, echoed that message.

Some fraternity presidents reiterated their chapter's stance against sexual assault, and some said they are in the process of trying to ascertain more information from their fraternity brothers.
