4 Wesleyan Students Arrested In Molly Overdose

Four Wesleyan University students were arrested Tuesday in connection with a dozen hospitalizations among people who took a party drug known as Molly.

The students were arrested on assorted drug charges, police said. They were suspended from the university, which is based in Middletown.

It was not the first such episode this year at the private university of nearly 3,000 students.

Wesleyan health officials said in a campus-wide email on Sept. 16 that students had been hospitalized the previous two weekends after taking Molly. Students were urged to visit the school’s health center if they had questions or concerns.
