The Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity house was vandalized Thursday at 12:45 a.m. when an unidentified object shattered a window.
“We had guys downstairs studying, and they heard some commotion going on,” said Wayne Shelton, Lambda Chi alumni adviser.
LSU Police Department officers responded to the vandalism report that claimed individuals were throwing objects at the house, including a heavy object that broke a window.
“Luckily enough, none of the chapter members were injured or hurt,” Shelton said.
LSUPD spokesman Capt. Cory Lalonde said the individuals who vandalized the house were identified, but their names won’t be released while the investigation is ongoing.
Shelton said he could not speculate on who vandalized the house.
Lambda Chi President Nick Bergeron declined to comment to The Daily Reveille and forbade the members of Lambda Chi from speaking to the media.
No arrests have been made yet. More information will be made available as the investigation continues.
Shelton said he cannot remember a similar incident happening at the Lambda Chi house in his approximately 18 years at the University.
The University’s Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity house was recently under review for violating the fraternity’s national standards. Some members were evicted after being suspended or expelled for unspecified reasons, according to the Lambda Chi Alpha International Headquarters.
