GETTYSBURG — An American extradited from France to face charges in a 2013 campus sexual assault case has waived his right to a pretrial hearing in Pennsylvania this week.

The geese were discovered on Jan. 18 near Quarry Pond on the college's campus. Testing by the PA Game Commission determined they had bird flu, the school said.

Humans can catch bird flu from sick animals or surfaces touched by sick animals, though this is rare, according to the CDC. Symptoms of bird flu include fever or chills, sore throat, cough, muscle aches, runny nose, tiredness, headache, vomiting, diarrhea or stomach pain, difficulty breathing and eye irritation.

Geese that were found dead near Quarry Pond in Gettysburg have since tested positive for avian influenza, according to officials.

According to an arrest warrant, Ian Cleary texted the victim, “So I raped you. I’ll never do it to anyone ever again," in December 2019.
