Student assaulted
An altercation minutes from campus has left a Fanshawe student with head injuries.
A group of young males confronted a man during the early hours of October 30 that resulted in a physical altercation, leaving the student seriously injured. The confrontation took place in the middle of a roadway on Fleming Drive near Fanshawe's main campus. In the incident the victim was struck in the back of the head with a glass bottle.
Fanshawe College security services said in a brief interview they were relieved to learn the bottle struck where it did and did not leave more serious injury, suggesting that any closer to the temple and the victim may not have been so lucky.
