Black College Student Attacked, Almost Drowned

Black College Student Attacked, Almost Drowned
Via Pam, this story is nothing short of infuriating:
''Get off the boat, N-----,'' the teens said to Barrett, according to police reports.
Words were exchanged, but the FIU students got off the boat, said Christopher Eden, who had attended the party with Barrett and friend Daniel Cabevas.
The three friends, all 18, decided to wait on the island for the boat's next trip.
But when they arrived back at the marina, the teens, now armed with baseball bats, were waiting for them.
The three college students were overwhelmed by their attackers.
Barrett was knocked into the Intracoastal, and several teens tried holding his head under water, according to police reports.
Yeah, that's what attempted murder looks like.
''Upon my arrival, I observed approximately 10-15 subjects trying to leave the area in a hurry,'' Goldberg wrote in his report. ``There were three victims who were hit with bats and one victim was almost drowned . . . while also being beaten.''
Miami-Dade, Surfside, Sunny Isles Beach and Bay Harbor Islands officers also went to the scene.
A bloody baseball bat was taken as evidence. The arrests were made by detectives from Miami-Dade's Intracoastal station.
Charged with a hate crime, battery and attempted felony murder: Miguel Aranda, 18, and Gilberto Maakaroun, 17, a North Miami Beach High student.
Charged with a hate crime and battery: Nicholas Checa, 15, and Marino Biondini, 17.
A fifth person, Jose Osorio, 21, was charged with aggravated battery and attempted felony murder, but not a hate crime.

Pennsylvania College Student is Beaten to Death Near Campus

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,296135,00.html

KUTZTOWN, Pa. — A Kutztown University student was beaten to death on a downtown sidewalk early Friday by three men who evidently chose their victim at random, police said.
The suspects, all from Allentown, were charged with assaulting Kyle Quinn, 19, who was pronounced dead at a hospital about an hour after the attack. The district attorney said he anticipated filing homicide charges pending the results of an autopsy scheduled for Saturday.
Kutztown's president, F. Javier Cevallos, called the beating a "senseless isolated random act of violence" and urged students to be vigilant.
A police officer in the small college town happened upon the scene shortly before 2:30 a.m., saw Quinn on the ground and arrested the men, who are not students, Berks County District Attorney Mark Baldwin said.
"He had been beaten and was lying in a pool of blood on the sidewalk," Baldwin said.
The suspects were identified as Terry D. Kline Jr., who turned 22 on Thursday; his brother Kenneth R. Kline, 21; and Timothy R. Gearhart, 23.

Spike in crime hits campus

Yale Summer Students worried by five recent robberies

A recent spate of crimes targeting Yale students has prompted YPD officials to release e-mails warning students of what they said is an "ongoing threat."
The same day that undergraduate dorms closed, a graduate student was the victim of an attempted armed robbery near the intersection of Mansfield and Sachem Streets. Four other robberies were committed recently - one on Cedar Street and two in the Dwight-Kensington neighborhood on May 31, as well as one on the walkway between Morse and Stiles Colleges on June 3. At least three of those incidents were armed robberies.
While the YPD generally does not inform students of every incident that occurs around campus through e-mail, YPD Sergeant Steven Woznyk said in this case students should be informed of the incidents as the latest rash of crime seems to indicate the possibility of a continued threat.
Woznyk said the rise in crimes affecting Yale students has kept pace with a general increase in violent crime across New Haven. During the weekend of June 2-3, six shootings and one homicide occurred in the city, he said, suggesting that Yale students are not being singled out for robberies.
Most crime in summer of 2006 was perpetrated by youths on bikes armed with pellet guns and knives, but Woznyk said "boys on bikes" have had nothing to do with the recent Yale robberies. One graduate student was mugged in late June of last year and two more students were targeted in late August.
And while YPD Chief James Perrotti's e-mails attributed increased student vulnerability to warmer weather and longer periods of daylight, Woznyk said he could not offer an explanation as to why crimes rates have increased this summer.

Aliquippa man charged with raping SRU student

Published: Thursday, December 18, 2008 11:11 PM EST
Michael Pound, Times StaffSLIPPERY ROCK TWP. — An Aliquippa man has been charged with raping a fellow student on the campus of Slippery Rock University.Campus police charged Marcus S. Norman, 19, of 801 Grand Ave. with rape, sexual assault and indecent assault, officers said, after he had sex with a female Slippery Rock student after she had told him twice that she didn’t want to have sex with him.

The female student told police that she sent a text message to Norman around 5 p.m. Dec. 3, asking to meet him outside a residence hall. They met later that night, and Norman suggested they sit in his truck because it was too cold to be outside.The woman agreed, but said Norman became aggressive once they were inside his truck.

She told police that she protested several times — once even trying to get out of the truck — but Norman eventually forcibly removed her sweat pants and had sex with her in the vehicle.Police said officers interviewed Norman twice, and both times he admitted that the woman had told him to stop. In a Dec. 11 interview, Norman told officers that he should have stopped when told.
