NEW ORLEANS -- Ten members of Tulane's Eta chapter of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity were in jail Wednesday, charged with aggravated battery from hazing incidents.

At least 10 pledges to the fraternity were burned during hazing incidents according to an attorney for one of the pledges.

Attorney Frank D'Amico Jr., who represents one of the pledges, said more than 10 men were burned. He said at least two pledges were severely burned and reported the attack to police. D'Amico said his client suffered second- and third-degree burns.

New Orleans police said the incidents took place April 25 and 26.

According to police, the pledges were burned with hot water, cayenne pepper, potatoes and vinegar.

Meanwhile, Tulane University confirmed that the Eta chapter of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, also known as Pikes, has been suspended from campus.

According to a statement from the university, it is investigating an incident involving the fraternity which might have violated Tulane's zero-tolerance policy toward hazing.

The university said it is also cooperating with the ongoing NOPD investigation.
