Students turn themselves in for alleged assault

Four male students turned themselves in to SMU Police on Feb. 28 in connection with the Feb. 10 alleged assault of another student at the Sigma Phi Epsilon House.

The students turned themselves in after warrants were issued for their arrest on Friday Feb. 22.

On Feb. 10 a male SMU student reported that he had been held against his will and struck numerous times.

Kent Best said in a statement, “The students have been temporarily suspended from SMU pending the outcome of the legal process and any student conduct review proceedings.”

SMU Police sent their findings from their investigation to the Dallas County District Attorney’s office.

The SMU Police Department has not updated the daily crime report log.
