Syracuse, N.Y. — Syracuse University is investigating a report of an antisemitic incident on Monday evening during a Rosh Hashanah celebration at a fraternity, according to university officials.

Around 6 p.m., members of the Zeta Beta Tau (ZBT) fraternity gathered to mark the start of the Jewish New Year when a student entered the house and threw meat on the floor, SU Chief Student Experience Officer Allen Groves said in a statement Tuesday night. The meat is believed to have been pork, he said.

The student, who did not belong to the fraternity, fled in a vehicle driven by a second student, Groves said in a statement to the SU community.

Both students were apprehended by the university’s Department of Public Safety and taken into custody by the Syracuse Police Department, Groves said. T
