Police say the incident in McDonel Hall on MSU's campus happened sometime between 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 3, and 2:30 a.m. on Sunday, September 4.
The special victims unit was called in over the weekend by MSU and they are investigating the incident. MSU says that the SVU is calling this a "non-stranger investigation" and the investigation will continue this week, until it is complete.
