Madison police found an out-of-state college student who was beaten and bleeding near North Lake and Langdon streets early Saturday morning.
“He was conscious, but he was hardly giving us any information at all,” Madison Police Department Spokesperson Joel DeSpain said.
One witness said before he saw the injured 20-year-old man, he heard a “loud pop” and saw two men getting into a black SUV.
Although there were glass bottles near the man, police said medical staff members believe the victim was punched or kicked because there were no shards of glass in his injuries, according to DeSpain.
DeSpain also said the police do not know if the men who entered the SUV were the ones who injured the victim.
The victim was treated for a broken nose and other non life-threatening injuries.
