MUPD arrests man on suspicion of rape, sodomy on MU campus

The University of Missouri Police Department said it arrested a man on suspicion of rape and sodomy on MU campus.

Major Brian Weimer confirms MUPD arrested 19-year-old Conner Whyte after responding to reports of a rape around 3 a.m. Sunday.

Weimer said the reported rape happened at an MU residential hall on MU campus. He said he believes the victim and suspect were acquaintances.

Public arrests record list Whyte’s address as Lathrop Hall. It’s unclear if this is the residential hall where the alleged rape happened.

The MU Residential Life website saysthose who live in the dorms on MU campus “must be enrolled in at least one class on the MU campus.”

Whyte remained in the Boone County jail Monday morning.
