Sigma Chi Suspended at Minnesota State - Mankato
Sigma Chi HQ has suspended the chapter at Minnesota State – Mankato for 45 days, and an investigation is underway. The Mankato paper has an article, and indicates that there will be a follow-up story tomorrow:

A CBS station has an article on its site with a few more details about the alleged incident that's being investigated:

Waiting for this to hit the major daily newspapers in the Twin Cities.

ETA: I should have read ahead, but then I don't listen to the evening news. And when I do it is not WCCO--the most conservative of our news stations. But if it happened on Sat., I am still surprised it hasn't hit the daily newspapers, which I do read.

I haven't seen anything in the papers either and I watch KARE's evening news pretty regularly and it hasn't been on there.

The question I have is what was a 16 year old girl doing at a fraternity house at 1am in the 1st place? Did her parents even know where she was?

GeekyPenguin and ladygreek: I don't know about coverage in the local paper, but I just checked KARE's site out of curiosity because GP mentioned it. The story -- Associated Press is credited -- is on KARE's site. I guess that doesn't necessarily mean they'd bother broadcasting it, but it's there.
