Police Search Fraternity House; 1 ‘Ancillary' Arrest

Hanover -- Police spent five hours yesterday searching Alpha Delta fraternity house on East Wheelock Street near Dartmouth College.
One person was arrested for possession of a controlled substance. But police said in a press release that the arrest was “ancillary” to the main investigation. Hanover police did not release the name of the man arrested, and said the substance was “likely marijuana.”
Hanover Police Chief Nick Giaccone said the department obtained a search warrant yesterday morning in Lebanon District Court, using information gleaned from an investigation launched in October 2004 involving an incident at the fraternity.
Giaccone would provide no specifics, but said the search is not tied to possible charges for drugs or other Class A felonies, crimes that can incur sentences of more than seven years in prison.
The investigation is ongoing and more arrests are expected, police said.
Around 4 p.m., officers removed 10 crates and two duffle bags full of evidence, along with two sledge hammers. A video tape and a computer tower were among the items confiscated from the house directly across from Alumni Gym.
