LSU student falls from fraternity house, dies


By The Associated Press
A sophomore from Lacombe fell from a fraternity house and died this week, Louisiana State University officials said today.
Jason Paul Whittle, 18, fell about 6 p.m. Wednesday, said Robert Anderson, an LSU spokesman. He fell onto his head from the Acacia House, said Gene Sands, another LSU spokesman.

It happened less than a week after another LSU student, 19-year-old Corey Domingue of Franklin, drank a bottle of rum and died. Domingue was studying and drinking with friends Thursday night; he died Friday morning.

"The LSU community is shocked and devastated to learn that we have lost another of our students, Jason Paul Whittle, to an incomprehensible accident," Chancellor Mark Emmert said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with the Whittle family and we join them in grieving the loss of Jason.

"As the University community mourns the tragic deaths of two of our students, I take this opportunity to urgently remind students to act responsibly, to look out for one another, and to do all in their power to prevent such tragedies from occurring again."
