9 UNH Students Arrested After Fraternity Drug Bust

DURHAM, N.H. (AP) ― Nine members of a University of New Hampshire fraternity have been arrested following a drug raid at the fraternity house.

The nine men were arrested following a three-month long investigation by the the New Hampshire Attorney General's Drug Task Force, the Durham Police department and the UNH Police Department. The arrests took place after warrants were served at the Sigma Beta fraternity house on Tuesday night.

University spokeswoman Kim Billings said that Sigma Beta has been put in interim suspension "pending an outcome from the UNH Office of Conduct and Mediation."

As a result of the suspension, Sigma Beta is "denied all rights and privileges of a recognized student organization, including loss of rights and privileges of membership in the UNH Inter-fraternity Council."

The fraternity has 10 days to appeal the suspension.
