RIT Student Fatally Injured Leaving Party; Three Fellow Students Face Alcohol-Related Charges
Three RIT students are facing charges for hosting a party that resulted in the death of an RIT student.
Monroe County Sheriff's Deputies charged Matthew Gibson and Eric Brown, both 19, and 18-year-old John Dong with unlawfully dealing with a child.
Deputies say the three are accused of hosting a party at an off-campus apartment building on John Street in Henrietta on October 26th where alcohol was provided to teenagers.
Police were called when 19-year old Alexander Ketchek had left the party and attempted to climb a wall before falling.
Ketchek was transported to Strong Memorial Hospital with serious injuries. RIT officials tell us he died about two weeks later.
Ketcheck was a 2011 graduate of the School Without Walls in Rochester and a second year RIT student studying film and animation.
The investigation continues and it is unclear if additional charges will be filed.
