After the unexpected death of a new Texas A&M student, the Offices of the Dean Student Life are looking into the activities of a fraternity from the weekend of Aug. 26.
Incoming freshman Joseph Little was pronounced dead at the College Station Medical Center on Aug. 29 after a seizure at Callaway House on Aug. 26, according to KBTX. Little was a new member of the A&M chapter of Phi Gamma Delta, according to a university spokesperson. The fraternity hosted its Bid Day, a welcoming of new members, on Aug. 26.
Brazos County Justice of the Peace Precinct 3 Judge Rick Hill told ABC-13 the seizure was unexpected, but does not indicate drug or alcohol use.
“In deaths like this that are unexpected or unattended, I would order an autopsy and I did order an autopsy after the organ donation in this case,” Hill said. “I would say that nothing at this point, points to drugs or alcohol.”
