08:22 AM ET 08.02 | Montee Ball appeared to be in the wrong place at the wrong time earlier this week. [Ball] suffered a concussion and facial injuries after five men jumped him early Wednesday in an area near campus that has been plagued by violence. Police are investigating whether the Heisman Trophy contender was targeted because of who he is. Ball suffered blows to the head and is being treated by the UW sports medicine staff, according to the UW Athletic Department. He was treated and released from a local hospital after the attack, which occurred about 2:15 a.m. in the 500 block of University Avenue. "We will continue to evaluate him as we approach the start of fall camp this weekend," [Bret Bielema] said. ... "I do expect Montee to make a full recovery."

Surprisingly, several wayward youths descended upon an exchange student in the company of a few countrymen. They arbitrarily singled out the unfortunate student and beat and kicked him mercilessly. One assailant did not desist until he was certain that the injury he wrought upon the stranger was fatal. Yes, the exchange student died. His misfortune arose from crossing the path of the wrong people.

This occurred in England. The assailants were pimply, pasty-faced white boys. The victim was from India.
