Update: The case against Zachary Michael Howe was dismissed Oct. 8, 2018 in Spartanburg CountySeventh Judicial Circuit Court.

A Georgia man has been charged with criminal sexual conduct after an incident on Wofford College’s campus in March of 2018.

Zachary Michael Howe, 20, of 1038 Crawford St. in Madison, Ga., was arrested after an incident at Wofford on March 2, said college spokeswoman Laura Corbin.

The victim, who’s also a student, has since been treated and released from the hospital, Corbin said.
