Freshman arrested for rape

A freshman was charged with four counts of aggravated sexual assault today.

The student, Parker Gilbert '16, allegedly entered the unlocked dorm room of a female student early in the morning of May 2 and attacked her.

Hanover Police believe at least one additional female was attacked by Gilbert.

Gilbert is due back in court May 20 and was ordered to be held on $75,000 bail. Police searched the alleged rapist's room on Wednesday afternoon and plan to conduct additional searches.

Gilbert, a freshman from London, is a member of the men's rugby team.
