Colton Scurry, an offensive lineman at Eastern Kentucky University was allegedly badly beaten in a bar fight with three unconfirmed Kentucky players according to Lex18.
Scurry was reportedly jumped by the players at a Richmond, Ky establishment early Sunday morning. An Eastern Kentucky student told NBC LEX 18 that Scurry had a bottle broken over his face, and needed stitches.
“My boyfriend’s a bouncer there,” Alex Carpenter, an EKU student told LEX 18. “He just said that it was 3 UK players who jumped one of our Eastern football players. And they broke a bottle over his face. They had to take him to the hospital. He had to get some stitches in his face.”
EKU rleased this statement:
“We are currently investigating information reported to us regarding a possible assault on one of our students in an off-campus location, as well as a possible related incident in Telford Hall that may have occurred late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. We can not divulge the the name the students who may have been involved at this time. This is all I know at this time.”
