A women’s rugby team at a Vermont university is being investigated for hazing after a player on the squad was allegedly branded and waterboarded last month, authorities said.
Police learned of the alleged behavior after responding to Norwich University, a private military school in Northfield, on March 20 for a report of someone being held at knifepoint, according to an affidavit obtained by the Barre Montpelier Times Argus.
Officers discovered an intoxicated member of the women’s rugby team who was wielding a knife. Two days later, the woman spoke to police and shared disturbing allegations of hazing.
She told police she had been “branded” using pliers and a lighter by other members of the rugby team while she was intoxicated.
