A WSU student sustained a serious head injury after being punched early this morning. From DNEWS.com: A 21-year-old Washington State University student was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for injuries he received in an altercation early Friday morning.
Police allege the man, whose name is not being released, was punched during an argument shortly after 2 a.m. in the 400 block of Northeast Colorado Street. He fell and struck his head on the pavement, said Sgt. Dan Dornes of the Pullman Police Department.
Dornes said the man was knocked unconscious and transported to Pullman Regional Hospital. He was transferred to Harborview for “specialized care related to the head injury.” He is now in stable condition, but remains unconscious.
Dornes said police have talked to a few witnesses in the area. The suspect is described as a white male 5-foot-11 to 6-foot tall, with short, light-colored hair. The suspect was seen running from the scene, and was unknown to the witnesses.
