MSU police are seeking a suspect in a sexual assault reported on campus Sunday morning.

A 21-year-old woman with no university affiliation told police she believes an acquaintance drugged her at a Lansing bar, took her to an unknown MSU residence hall and sexually assaulted her sometime between 4:15 and 8 a.m. Sunday, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said.

“We really haven’t established a location of where it occurred, but she did indicate she thought it was a residence hall,” McGlothian-Taylor said.

The woman met the suspect early last week and agreed to meet him for drinks Saturday, McGlothian-Taylor said.

“They initially met at an East Lansing bar, but the last bar they were at was at a Lansing location,” McGlothian-Taylor said.

The victim said her drink was drugged while at the Lansing bar.

When the woman awoke Sunday morning, the suspect told her to get dressed and drove her back to her vehicle in an East Lansing parking ramp, McGlothian-Taylor said.

The victim received medical treatment at a local hospital following the assault, McGlothian-Taylor said.

McGlothian-Taylor said the victim was too disoriented to give a full description of the suspect or the location of the residence hall where she was taken.

The suspect told the victim he wasn’t an MSU student and he was an out-of-state resident, McGlothian-Taylor said.

Anyone with information regarding the incident is being asked to call MSU police at (517) 355-2222.
