FARGO (KFGO) - The Cass County State's Attorneys office has decided not to charge a man in a fight with an NDSU student who suffered a broken jaw and other injuries earlier this month.
Prosecutor Reid Brady says there were conflicting accounts of what happened when Isaiah Smith, a junior from Brainerd, Minn. was injured in a park near the campus. Police interviewed several witnesses as part of the investigation and determined that Smith and others had been drinking prior to the dispute.
Smith told police that he confronted a man who he believed was responsible for an earlier domestic assault on a woman he knows. He was placed in a chokehold and passed out.
