Report: Syracuse’s men’s lacrosse’s Chase Scanlan involved in ‘domestic’ police call prior to suspension

According to a report published by Syracuse.com on Wednesday, Chase Scanlan’s indefinite suspension from last week was the result of what Syracuse University’s Department of Public Safety labeled “a domestic incident a day before he was suspended by the team, according to law enforcement sources and people familiar with the case”.

Although Scanlan was not charged with a crime by DPS, Onondaga County District Attorney William Fitzpatrick informed Syracuse.com that his office and City of Syracuse Police had joined the investigation, and will be meeting with the other individual (an unnamed woman) involved.

“We plan on meeting with the victim at her convenience,” Fitzpatrick said on Wednesday.
