Student punched

A student attending Saturday’s football game was punched in the face twice after being harassed by a 24-year-old student, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said. The 18-year-old female student told police she was in Section 14 of Spartan Stadium when the suspect began harassing her. He then punched the victim twice, leaving her with lacerations on her top and bottom lips, McGlothian-Taylor said. An 18-year-old witness confirmed the suspect punched the victim while in the stands. MSU police officers made contact with the suspect, who denied the allegation. The male student was escorted from the stadium following the incident. A police report has been forwarded to the Ingham County Prosecutor’s Office, where charges of assault and battery are being sought, McGlothian-Taylor said.
