A student was found dead Tuesday in New Pembroke 1. Providence Police and Department of Public Safety officers limited access to the dorm Tuesday evening until the body was removed from the building.
A student who lives in the dorm told The Herald that a police officer informed him that an NP1 resident died "several days ago" but did not specify the cause of death.
PPD detectives said they could not confirm the death until next of kin had been notified. University officials refused to comment.
