Witness says fraternity partygoers laughed as friend was assaulted at Chicago university
A woman who attended a University of Chicago fraternity party says she found her 21-year-old friend pinned to a bathroom floor by a man, while other men outside allegedly laughed and shouted that they wanted a turn. The account, which matches key details in a police report, has brought renewed scrutiny to sexual assault allegations at US university fraternities.
The alleged incident took place at an Alpha Epsilon Pi party in the early hours of 11 October. Police have identified a suspect, reported to be a first-year Purdue University student visiting Chicago, but have not named him publicly or announced an arrest. The University of Chicago has barred him from campus and says it is cooperating with police; neither the alleged victim nor the suspect is a student there.
