Cheney and EWU police working together on investigation
CHENEY – Students at Kappa Sigma fraternity house party report being given an unknown substance in a drinking cup, Wednesday night. Nov. 2.
The fraternity house at which the event allegedly occurred is in Cheney, not on EWU campus. “That makes it a Cheney police job.” Interim police chief Rick Bechtel said.
“Somebody allegedly saw a post on TikTok about somebody giving out these drugs and reported it to the Cheney police and it is now under investigation.”
Bechtel said that he then reported the investigation to Chief Jewell Day of the EWU police department.
“Our detective is still working on it.” Day said. “We issued a timely warning to the entire community and we will be updating as we attain new information.”
The timely notice released by the EWU police department said “Two students reported that while attending parties at a fraternity house, they were given a cup with an unknown beverage by a male named “Thor” who is not thought to be affiliated with the university.”
Further details will be reported as they are obtained by the Cheney Free Press.
