SMU issued a crime alert last Thursday after a female student reported that she had been sexually assaulted by an acquaintance on September 19 around 3 a.m. in his residence hall room.
SMU police are currently investigating the matter.
The student told police that she and her acquaintance, a student, had gone to a party after the previous night’s football game. They later returned to campus and went to his room, where she was assaulted.
Police urge anyone with information about this matter to contact the SMU Police Department at 214-768-3388. Anonymous tips can be made to 214-SMU-2TIP or by going online to smu.edu/2tip.
