Breaking news Tonight, we
have confirmed reports of an
anonymous phone call at Penn
State threatening the former
members of Beta Theta Pi
fraternity.
We are joined live from the
University with details.
We just spoke to a
defense attorney involved in
the Beta Theta Pi investigation
who says she got a call from
State College Police to warn
her about a very serious threat
made against her client.
Police told her the President's
office got a call Yesterday
afternoon from an anonymous
caller saying if any of the
defendants in the Beta Theta Pi
case returned to the University
they would be seriously harmed.
We spoke to State College
Police a few hours ago who
refused to comment. And said it
a Penn State Police matter then
Penn State Police referred us
to their online Police log
which only listed an event at
Old Main.
We spoke to the University who
says they too do not have
comments since it's a Penn
State Police matter.
The defense attorney told us
the whole story.
"It's shocking and it can be
frightening to a young college
boy to get information that
someone is threatening him for
an incident that happened at
the University."
Police told her they didn't
make the threat against anyone
specifically so State College
Police did have to warn the
defense attorney's about the
threat.
The Penn State Police are
taking this threat seriously
because according to their
police log this is still an
ongoing investigation.
