A female student was sexually assaulted at 2:50 a.m. on July 10 at a party at the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house on 613 Gayley Avenue.
The victim was standing on the “North Exterior ramp” when a 21-year-old man dressed in jeans and a gray cardigan allegedly came up behind the student, “pushed her against the wall and sexually assaulted her,” according to police.
The alleged suspect, who has not been caught, is described in the police report as a man with blond hair, brown eyes and a slim build, between 5-feet-8-inches and 5-feet-10-inches in height.
Police are currently investigating a number of leads, said UCPD spokeswoman Nancy Greenstein.
Although the assault took place at a fraternity house, Greenstein said it is not clear whether the party was hosted by the fraternity or an outside group.
“Fraternities often allow others to rent houses for parties,” she said.
The UCLA chapter of Phi Kappa Psi released a phone statement to the Daily Bruin, saying “We are fully and completely cooperating with the UCPD during the investigation, but due to the ongoing nature of the investigation we cannot comment.”
Greenstein reminded students to take precautions when going out, including drinking moderately to retain faculties and watching out for friends.
Anyone who has information regarding the assault or was at the party Saturday should contact UCPD.
