MIT Student Dies in Fall

030108-wells.jpgAn MIT student died early this morning in what the AP says was an apparent fall from the fifth floor of the Delta Upsilon fraternity house.

Robert Wells was a senior from Ballston Spa, New York. He studied in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences and played on the football team.

In WBZ's online video, a neighbor described the scene: "The body was laying right next to that car with white towels on it, and there was just blood everywhere." WHDH noted that a party--which isn't out of the ordinary at a fraternity--was going on that night.

No further details have been released about the incident.
