LSUPD releases police report on Maxwell Gruver death. Details limited but Gruver was found unconscious at frat house


LINK

quote:

Maxwell Gruver, the LSU fraternity pledge who died last week, was found unresponsive at the Phi Delta Theta house after a night of drinking, according to the LSU police report released Friday afternoon.

Gruver, 18, of Roswell, Georgia, was taken to the Our Lady of the Lake hospital by a private vehicle, where he was pronounced dead last week.

The four sentence narrative outlined in the initial police report did not detail how much alcohol was consumed or provide information about the events at the fraternity house that preceded Gruver's death.

There isn't anything new in that report. We already knew he was brought by private vehicle.

The Advocate is just milking this for clicks.

no bueno.


that being said one would think calling an ambulance would probably have been smarter. they prob thought they would get in trouble if they did this but it could have saved his life. we will never know. but those kids that were involved in this will be forever haunted by this experience.

The report also added that THC, the chemical found in marijuana, was also detected in Gruver's system

This likely confirms he died at the fraternity house and they just called the time of death at the lake.

It's pretty bad for the university and the Greek system.

I feel like I saw on here people saying he might have been brought from the dorm

I'm not sure I'm buying that this was hazing. Feel bad for the family though that's got to be beyond rough to see your kid finally make it to college and have this happen so suddenly.

You think? That might explain the pop up ads and my phone raising 20 degrees when I clicked on it

No. Because driving someone to the hospital is RARELY the smartest decision in a city unless they're awake enough with a broken limb to say "i don't wanna pay that frickin amberlamps bill."

You have Fire/EMTs 50 seconds from that house on Highland Road.

It's very likely his "brothers" drove Gruver to the hospital when he was already deceased, probably cold to the touch.

Not sure why this pet was relevant, or appropriate to disclose.

Enacting more heavy-handed anti-drinking policies is going to make the problem worse.

If he had rigamortis and they drove him stiff and cold to the hospital, there's more wrong with these frickin tards than we thought.

It's curious that no one called 911. Why would you put an unresponsive guy in the car and drive him to the hospital? There's something more to this part of the story, I'd bet.
