The alleged assault occurred between the hours of midnight and 6 a.m. on Sunday, according to the bulletin, which was emailed to UK students Monday afternoon.

The bulletin stated that the victim knew the alleged assailant. A further investigation is ongoing.

In light of the report, UK police have advised students to practice caution on campus, suggesting they carry a phone in case of emergencies, walk with friends when possible and use campus safety services like SAFECATS, which provides free safety escorts, if they feel unsafe.
