DENVER - Three people are facing charges after a man accidentally photobombed them and he was beaten into unconsciousness.
The charges stem from a May 11 incident in LoDo when the bars let out and the defendants were taking photographs of themselves near 14th and Market streets. The unidentified 30-year-old victim accidentally walked into one of the shots, police said, and one of the suspects, Bryanna Warren, 25 began arguing with him and hitting him.
According to an arrest affidavit, the victim pushed Warren away and began walking away but was followed by Warren and Lindsye Newton, 25, as the argument escalated. Police said the victim pushed them both away and was then knocked unconscious by the third suspect, Terrell Moore, 27.
A police sergeant witnessed the blow to the victim's head, and said he tried to protect the victim on the ground from the growing crowd. At one point, the officer's attention was diverted and when he turned back, he said saw Newton hitting the unconscious man in the face with her purse.
Both Newton and Warren were charged with third-degree assault on an at-risk adult "for allegedly continuing to assault the victim while he was lying unconscious on the ground," according to a news release.
Police initially charged the trio with public fighting but a medical report said the victim sustained permanent blindness in his right eye, facial fractures and intra-cranial hemorrhaging. That's when the charges were upgraded.
WHERE’S OPRAH?
Ah, urban living, rats in cages. And the govt wants us all to live this way.
For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction in Nature. It's one of her immutable laws. These Amish are really piling up the karmic debt.
When will these people stop assaulting others? When they get shot?
I'm still trying to figure out what a "photobomb" is. From the story, it appears that if you walk in front of someone taking pictures, you have committed some sort of social no-no that requires even females to attack. Usually I mutter 'Sorry', duck a little and walk on. Have I missed class the day this became an insult of the first order?
And I had to look up photobomb.
Terrell looks like he’s been hitting the breakfast bar regularly.
Apparently, that justifies an assault. Better stay off the public sidewalks.
“And they were not charged with felonies??”
Third degree assault is a felony.
America is damn hell-hole...because of them AND their guilt-ridden white "enlightened" enablers.
It’s becoming increasingly comment for newspapers and other media to not print “victims” names.
I also did a Google street view of the cross street and it is both spread out and mixed use. Not very grungy, a redeveloped area. The only bars I could find was a closed piano bar, next to a place called the Oak Tavern, which is a sports bar.
Urban culture. The sane and decent are still content with a little apologetic smile or “Sorry!” and moving on...
In this digital age I doubt they were wasting film. What’s the big deal? Just delete it.
Do you have any evidence of this?
I dunno. It would seem to me that continuing to pummel someone when they are unconscious on the ground might be a slight overreaction.
