Seven Ole Miss students were arrested recently in connection with the suspension of the Gamma Iota chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity.

The fraternity was suspended in November until May 1, 2025.

OPD took a report on Nov. 2 in reference to cyberstalking via group messages and social media.

After an investigation, OPD arrested the following individuals:

Nicholas Reynolds, 22

Wyatt Johnson, 20

Peyton Newcomb, 20

Christian Parten, 20

Walker Holden, 19

Cole Goretski, 20

They were charged with felony cyberstalking and taken to the Lafayette County Detention Center where they were each booked on $5,000 bonds.
