A 21-year-old from Brooklyn who attended Buffalo State College has died in a potential hazing incident at an off-campus fraternity house, according to police.

Business major Bradley Doyley, who was prepared to graduate in spring, died at Buffalo General Medical Center after becoming ill.

Bradley reportedly wasn't a member of a fraternity, but Buffalo Police are investigating if his death was part of a hazing incident at the school's off-campus Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity house

The college and the fraternity's national governing body have suspended Buffalo State's chapter.

However, college officials said Bradley wasn't pledging to the fraternity.

'He had not completed the application process with the national fraternity,' a spokesperson for the school told WKBW-ABC.

Students contradicted those reports, saying Bradley was forced to drink something as a form of hazing.

'I was in the weight room and heard he was pledging and was made to drink some type of toxic substance,' Bengal football player Dametrius Brown told Buffalo News. 'I keep hearing different stories. First it was detergent, then some said sewer water.'

'His loss will undoubtedly be felt throughout our community,' said Buffalo State President Katherine Conway-Turner. 'My heart goes out to his cherished family and friends.'

Doyley played for the Bengal's basketball team during his first two and a half years at Buffalo State College and his former basketball coach, Fajri Ansari, told Buffalo News the senior was already sick leading up to his death.

'He called me from the hospital January 29 to say he felt sick.

'He thought it might have been something bad he ate. He had a great spirit,' Ansari said.

Officials from the SUNY college provided no details on the cause of death or type of hazing.
