Up to 30 women allegedly drugged and sexually assaulted

Rumours of the assaults began circulating on social media last weekend.

The unconfirmed reports allege the women were drugged and sexually assaulted during orientation week.

Students staying at the Medway-Sydenham Hall residence received a letter Saturday from student housing officials saying the school was looking into the allegations.

The university then issued a release saying given the seriousness of the allegations, the investigation has been turned over to London police.
