俄亥俄州立兄弟会着火事件跟进:哥伦布警方联手消防纵火组调查,事发时间确认为11月7日

美国俄亥俄州富兰克林县Columbus市的俄亥俄州立大学兄弟会着火事件有了执法层面的新进展。哥伦布警察局11月9日发表声明确认,这起事件看来发生在11月7日,地点在Indianola Avenue 1900号街区一带,警方正与俄亥俄州立大学以及Columbus消防局纵火组共同调查,确认是否发生了刑事行为。GSM此前报道此事时,事发日期尚不清楚,这次是警方首次把日期对上。
警方在声明中说,11月7日晚,事发地一带没有人向警方打过求助电话,警方也没有接到前往该区域的出警请求。警方是11月8日经俄亥俄州立大学提醒、得知这段视频在社交平台上疯传之后,才介入响应。声明原文写道,警方将与俄亥俄州立大学以及Columbus消防局的纵火组合作,查明是否有刑事行为发生。
据《哥伦布电讯报》(The Columbus Dispatch)报道,视频拍摄地看上去不是Sigma Alpha Epsilon兄弟会的正会所,而是附近1980 Indianola Ave的一处物业,画面环境与该物业对得上,兄弟会常用这类附属物业举办活动。该物业业主没有回应采访请求,Sigma Alpha Epsilon全国组织与本地分会也没有回应置评请求。
这段视频是否与欺凌活动有关,目前还没有结论。据《哥伦布电讯报》报道,知情人士称现在判断是否为欺凌还太早。俄亥俄州立大学的校园欺凌透明报告显示,Sigma Alpha Epsilon在过去五年没有其他违规记录,2026年另有9家兄弟会和12名个人因违规在列。该分会目前在校方学生组织网站上被列为非活跃组织,也在临时停办名单上,其Instagram账号已转为私密。
仍未公布的事实还有三项:起火原因没有公布,两名涉事者的伤势程度没有公布,是否有人已被提出指控也没有消息。俄亥俄州立大学已将该分会临时停办并展开全面调查,涉事人员正在接受治疗。GSM不搬运这段疯传视频画面,上述内容按警方声明与报道的文字描述呈现。

Ohio State Fraternity Fire Follow-Up: Columbus Police Team With Fire Arson Unit, Incident Dated to Nov. 7
There is a new law-enforcement development in the fraternity fire at Ohio State University in Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio. In a statement on November 9, the Columbus Division of Police confirmed that the incident appears to have happened on November 7, in the 1900 block of Indianola Avenue, and said police are working with Ohio State University and the Columbus Division of Fire's arson unit to determine whether any criminal acts occurred. When GSM first reported the story, the date of the incident was not clear; this is the first time police have pinned it down.
Police said in the statement that they received no calls for service to the area on the night of November 7. Officers responded on November 8 only after Ohio State University alerted them to the video circulating on social media. The statement said police will be working with Ohio State University, as well as the Columbus Division of Fire's arson unit, to determine if any criminal acts occurred.
According to The Columbus Dispatch, the video does not appear to have been filmed at Sigma Alpha Epsilon's main fraternity house, but at a nearby property at 1980 Indianola Ave that matches the setting in the footage; fraternities often use such annex properties to host events. The property owner did not return calls, and neither the national Sigma Alpha Epsilon organization nor its local chapter returned requests for comment.
Whether the video is connected to hazing remains unresolved. The Dispatch reported that sources said it is too soon to say whether the incident was hazing. Ohio State's Campus Hazing Transparency Report shows Sigma Alpha Epsilon has not been involved in any other violations in the last five years, while nine fraternities and 12 individuals are listed as having violations in 2026. The chapter is currently listed as inactive on the university's student organization website and appears on its interim suspensions list, and it recently made its Instagram account private.
Three facts remain undisclosed: what caused the fire, how seriously the two individuals were injured, and whether any charges have been filed. Ohio State has placed the fraternity on interim suspension pending a full investigation, and the individuals in question are receiving medical care. GSM does not reproduce the viral video; the account above follows the police statement and published reporting.
