A Georgia man who appears to be a local college student was charged with assaulting someone and causing a skull fracture outside a local fraternity house last week, authorities announced Friday.
William Kroymann, 20, was arrested Wednesday and charged with a single count of aggravated assault, the Statesboro Police Department in Georgia said. Statesboro, Georgia is located approximately 55 miles north of Savannah and is home to the University of Georgia South.
Police received a call around 1:15 a.m. Jan. 13 with a report of a man lying unconscious at an address on Olympic Boulevard near Sigma Nu Fraternity, authorities said. Investigators determined that the victim was walking past the frat house when multiple people “attacked” him “as he was walking past the house and then advanced on the victim on the sidewalk,” police said.

The suspect has addresses in Statesboro, where the alleged crime occurred, and in Ellabell, which is 43 minutes south.
