The body of a Clemson University student was pulled from the water near the college campus on Monday afternoon, according to the Oconee County Sheriff's Office.
Watt said the man's body was discovered near the shore in a rocky area under the bridge in about 4 to 5 feet of water. The body was pulled from the water just after 5 p.m.
Coroner Karl Addis identified the victim as 19-year-old Tucker Hipps, of Piedmont.
SigEp's national communications manager Rob Jepson said they are aware of allegations on social media that Hipps' death may have been linked to hazing in some way and said the fraternity has a zero tolerance policy. Jepson said they are investigating those claims

This is so sad to hear, especially during National Hazing Prevention Week.
