Police stop fight outside Beam Hall
by Tom Cowan
News Editor
Shortly past midnight on the
morning of Thursday Oct. 26,
police were called to campus to
remove two threatening and dis
ruptive non-students from the
lobby of Beam Hall.
One witness, Ryan Burleson,
estimated that a crowd of between
75 and 100 students, many of them
angry football players, surrounded
the two individuals, who were us
ing racial slurs and making threats
such as T’m going to get a gun and
shoot every one of you! ’
Neither of the individuals had a
gun, but according to Burleson, one
of the individuals was holding a
glass bottle and the other was
armed with what appeared to be a
pool ball in a sock. According to
Head of Security Stan Jacobsen, a
Brevard police officer threatened
to use a taser gun on one of the
individuals who initially refused
to cooperate.
While witnesses say both indi
viduals were taken away in a po
lice car, only one of the individu
als was arrested at that time. Ac
cording to court documents, Scott
Young, age 23, was arrested on the
Brevard College campus on one
charge of intoxicated and disrup
tive behavior and another charge
of communicating threats.
According to Jacobsen, the other
individual, William Wohlers, was
not arrested on campus, but was
arrested after a separate incident
several hours later Court docu
ments indicate that Wohlers, age
22, was arrested later that day for
intoxicated and disruptive behav
ior at a local Triangle Stop parking
lot.
