Party Crashers Start Trouble at Trinity College

Trinity Frat Member Stabbed

A Sigma Nu brother at Trinity College was stabbed in the cheek and another student was threatened with a gun early Saturday morning when 3 men not affiliated with the frat tried to crash a party.

As reported by the Hartford Courant, a brother said one of the three men held a black pistol and then a box cutter to his face before Slater was stabbed during a confrontation on the front porch. The assault occurred after they were asked to leave the property.

"Sam was spitting blood,'' said another brother. "We called police immediately. We took him up to the third floor and put pressure on the wound.''

"We're incredibly thankful it was not life-threatening,'' said Jeffrey Walker, president of the Sigma Nu chapter. "It's certainly something we're going to have to discuss, as a fraternity, to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.''
