02-14-2003


Eleven fraternity members at Northwestern State University have been arrested and their fraternity has been suspended for alleged hazing of a pledge.

A twelfth suspect was expected to surrender today.

The case involves Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity. NSU police detective Doug Prescott said a fraternity pledge was beaten during initiation ceremonies Feb. 2 and Feb. 9 at two off-campus locations.

The pledge -- who has resigned from the university -- suffered bruises to his upper body but his injuries were not serious, Prescott said.

The suspects face charges of simple battery, aggravated battery and hazing. NSU police have not have not yet released their names, saying it could affect the investigation.

Kappa Alpha Psi has been suspended from the university pending completion of the investigation, an NSU spokesman said. He said the fraternity was cooperating in the investigation.

Hoosier, that subject might get others riled up. I know you mean well but I guess by now you know what to expect

Hope the investigation turns out negative but if positive then what idiots!

Hopefully 10-20 years from now we can all be happy that this stupid stuff no longer occurs.. If not we can all be happy to send of (*#$loads of $$$ to insurance companies!
