BETHLEHAM, Pa. — (BETHLEHAM, Pa.) -- Four men have been arrested for allegedly yelling racial slurs at a Black student at Lehigh University before chasing him and following him into his dorm, where he was allegedly assaulted, a Pennsylvania district attorney announced Tuesday.
The suspects -- all in their early 20s but none of them current or former Lehigh students -- drove past the victim, who was walking home with two friends early Saturday, and shouted racial slurs, according to Northampton County District Attorney Terry Houck.
The victim, whom Houck did not name to protect his privacy, ran after the car after being called slurs and banged on the trunk of the vehicle, He then reached into one of the car windows, but was only able to briefly touch one of the occupants before backing away from the vehicle and walking home, the victim told investigators.
Once in the dorm, the victim said he went to see a friend before going into one of the bathrooms. When he exited, the men, who had been let into the dorm, were waiting for him and began attacking him, according to Houck.The witness who let the men into the building told police one of the suspects was armed with a handgun, Houck said.
