Two women assaulted early Friday outside a dormitory at East Carolina University may have been targeted because of their perceived sexual orientation. One victim remains hospitalized with a broken jaw.

According to the Daily Reflector, assistant ECU police chief Dawn Tevepaugh said police arrested an 18-year-old male ECU student and are seeking another man in connection with the assault at the Greenville, North Carolina campus. The two women, ages 18 and 19, are not students at the school.

“Officers arrested Tyler Hall resident Bryan Berg, 18, and charged him with assault on a female after he allegedly punched one of the women in the jaw,” reported the Reflector. “They are searching for a second man who was identified and have questioned a third man as a witness, Tevepaugh said.

There used to be a very powerful GLBT group. I hope they are still doing well and step in to help. Several friends still live there.
