Cornell police made a drug-related arrest at the Chi Phi fraternity house on 19 October, about 22 hours before an alleged gang rape.

Cornell police responded to the Chi Phi fraternity house at about 1:05 a.m. on 19 October 2024 and made a drug-related arrest during a roughly 40-minute response. The alleged gang rape took place approximately 22 hours later.

Cornell University president Michael Kotlikoff released a video statement describing the case as 'deeply disturbing'. The discovery that police had attended the fraternity house so recently before the alleged assault has raised questions about the university's oversight and response protocols.
