| The FBI has joined a search for an Indian-American Northwestern University student reported missing since last week, according to the University police which is investigating the case.
18-year-old Harsha Maddula, Northwestern pre-med sophomore and straight-A student, disappeared on Saturday over the weekend after attending an off-campus party with friends.
Police say they've interviewed dozens and checked the student's cell phone.
"University police are interviewing all of those students who were at the party," said Alan Cubbage, Vice President of University Relations.
Friends from Maddula's dorm said they last saw him while leaving the off-campus party.
"They realized that he wasn't with them while they were walking to another party," said a friend of Maddula, who was with him at the party. Maddula's friends did not want to be identified due to the sensitivity of the situation.
Maddula left the party with three or four people, according to multiple sources who saw his group leaving the house, which is located west of campus.
Several sources who said they spoke with Maddula at the party recalled him as coherent - not stumbling or visibly intoxicated - as he left.
Weinberg junior Moritz Gellner, who lives at the house where Maddula was last seen, sent a statement to The Daily after the emergency alert was sent out.
"Everybody in our house has been complying with the investigation and is trying to give as much information as possible regarding what we know about the student in question," Gellner said.
