Judge dismisses majority of charges against Indiana University student accused of rape

A Monroe County judge dismissed all of the allegations in the case except a single count of rape.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — A Monroe County judge dropped a majority of charges against an Indiana University student who had been accused of raping two women in one week. 

Noah Apgar, 20, was initially charged with five counts of rape, a count of strangulation and a count of confinement. 

But Tuesday, Oct. 29, a judge dismissed everything but a single rape charge against Apgar.

Apgar was banned from the Bloomington campus in September after two separate women came forward saying he assaulted them. 

Police had been investigating four reports of sexual assault in September on the Bloomington campus. The latest alleged attack, which occurred on Sept. 13, led to another victim coming forward about a separate sexual attack, allegedly by Apgar.

Apgar is expected back in court at the end of November. No trial date has been set at this time.
