Posted on Thu, Feb 28, 2013 : 6:17 a.m.

University of Michigan police warned students late Wednesday that three reports of sexual assaults in an off-campus apartment are being investigated.

The students each told police they were sexually assaulted by the same suspect during parties in his apartment. The assaults took place in September and Feb. 15.

All incidents followed the victims being given alcohol, according to a crime alert published by U-M. In two cases, the victims reported passing out then waking up during the assault.

"A third student reported she had been inappropriately grabbed by the suspect," according to the crime alert.

One victim reported an incident to Ann Arbor police on Wednesday. The location is Zaragon Place Apartments on East University south of South University, making it the jurisdiction of city police.

The suspect is described as an Asian male, 31 years old (but looks younger), 5'6"-5'7", 140 pounds, short black hair, brown eyes.

These reports follow earlier sexual assault reports involving students that include an attack at West Quad and three students who described sexual assaults by taxi drivers.

Anyone with information is asked to call U-M police at (734) 763-1131 or AAPD's tip line at (734) 794-6939 or tips@a2gov.org.
