The charges are connected to an Oct. 31 report.
A female student said she was asleep in her dorm room in 1915 Hall when she woke up to find an unknown person with one arm around her in bed. The woman screamed and the unknown person fled the area. Princeton University Public Safety investigated the call and identified the person as Fan.
Casey Deblasio, a spokesperson for the Mercer County Prosecutor's Office said that the Oct. 31 report does not appear to be connected to other reports of a person "fondling" students on Princeton University's campus earlier this fall.
She added that the university did not release details about the investigation or whether alcohol was a factor.
