According to the Morgantown Dominion Post, the episode began inside the club when one student, Husni Sangarie, said he noticed people in the other group staring at him. Someone from that group bumped him and stepped on his foot on the dance floor minutes later.
That person apparently tried to apologize, but his friends rushed over and an argument developed. Sangarie, two friends and the group were then asked to leave the club.
Lewis and another friend saw Sangarie surrounded. Sangarie said he was punched in the back of the head and fell to the ground and was then kicked several times. Sangarie said Devine and Sanders were involved.
Lewis intervened and said he was hit in the eye and kicked by others in the group. Lewis complained of shoulder pain.
The players and the others in the group then ran off and the victims tracked down Bennett.
