Attacked for Promoting Inhalant Use

From the Westerville News and Public Opinion (March 24):

A 17-year old male was attacked on Tuesday after someone told him he forgot belongs at school. However, the attackers had not selected him at random. His assailants, three minors and an adult, claim the male was teaching younger students how to get high using aerosol cans. The ambush appeared to have occurred on school property but outside of school hours.

The adult suspect claimed he wanted to protect his younger brother, who is mentally handicapped, from being exposed to the male's behavior. Police noted facial swelling, bruising and cuts resulting from the altercation. All four attackers were charged.
