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.

Whyte remained in the Boone County jail Monday morning.
