Early Saturday morning around 2 a.m., Carson Otter, an Ole Miss student, was assaulted by an unknown assailant at the intersection of Trinity Street and East 7th Street in Austin, Texas.
According to eyewitnesses, Bloomington, Indiana native Otter was walking with some people when a silver Honda four-door sedan drove by and words were exchanged between Otter and the occupants of the car. Then, eyewitnesses said, a passenger in the sedan got out of the vehicle and struck Otter once, Otter fell to the ground, and the man got back in the vehicle and fled the scene.
No arrests have been made by the Austin Police Department yet. The potential charge currently facing the unknown assailant is aggravated assault. When police arrived on the scene, Otter was already being treated by Austin Travis County EMS. He was transported to University Medical Center Brackenridge.
While at University Medical Center Brackenridge, Otter underwent emergency brain surgery. Candy Otter, Carson Otter’s mother, posted on Facebook that Carson had been able to breathe on his own for a few hours on Sunday and that a second computed tomography (CT) scan had brought back positive news. Candy Otter also said that Carson had been able to open is eyes and nod in response.
