UC Berkeley student Finn Wolff was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of committing two sexual assaults, according to Berkeley Police Department spokesperson Officer Byron White.

The two alleged sexual assaults occurred in November 2017 and March 2019, White said in an email. During the assaults, the victims were allegedly “physically injured after being punched, grabbed and or bitten,” he said in the email, adding that BPD has learned that there may be additional victims of Wolff who have not yet come forward. None of the reported cases occurred on the UC Berkeley campus.

Wolff, who is described on his LinkedIn page as a member of the Berkeley chapter of Phi Kappa Psi fraternity, was charged by the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office with multiple felony charges.
