A woman attending a party in Marcy-Holmes was sexually assaulted Sunday by an unknown man, according to a crime alert sent to students and faculty by the University of Minnesota Police Department.
The party was at the 1100 block of Fifth Street Southeast, which is near multiple greek houses.
At about 1 a.m. Sunday, the woman was approached and sexually assaulted by an unknown male, who she described to police as about 18-22 years old, according to the crime alert.
She called for and received help from bystanders and the suspect fled, Minneapolis Police Department spokesperson John Elder said.
Elder said that Alpha Epsilon Pi was named in the police report but said he couldn’t say why.
Bystanders also did not recognize the suspect, the email said.
