TCU police issue safety alert after 2 sexual assaults reported in dorms

Texas Christian University issued a safety alert after two sexual assault incidents were reported in campus dormitories in recent weeks. 

Campus police posted a safety bulletin following the two reports, one occurring over the weekend and another about three weeks ago.

In the first incident, a third party reported that a student was sexually assaulted by a guest visiting another student. TCU police say this incident happened around three weeks ago in an on-campus dorm.

The second incident involved a TCU student who was reportedly assaulted by another TCU student in a dorm over Homecoming weekend.
