  • Police respond to fraternity argument: The State College Police Department said it responded to a verbal argument between members of two fraternities early yesterday morning.

    The argument began when members of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, 417 E. Prospect Ave., approached members of nearby Delta Chi fraternity, 424 E. Fairmount Ave., police said. The Pi Kappa Alpha members accused Delta Chi members of shooting and damaging their fraternity's windows, police said.

    Police said they responded after Delta Chi president Matthew Stuckert called them. When they arrived, members from both fraternities agreed to work out their differences among themselves, police said.

  • Aggravated Assault: A woman reported her ex-boyfriend put a gun to her head early yesterday morning while in her apartment at 710 S. Atherton St., State College police said.

    Police said the woman did not want to press charges but wanted to document the incident in case something worse happened later.
