Purdue WR Lymon stabbed, hospitalized
March 30, 2007
WEST LAFAYETTE, INDIANA (TICKER) -- Purdue wide receiver Selwyn Lymon was hospitalized after being stabbed early Friday morning.
Lymon, 20, was admitted to the intensive care unit at St. Elizabeth Medical Center with a stab wound to his upper chest. He is in critical but stable condition, a hospital spokeswoman said.
The hospital would not confirm the nature of the injury, but a West Lafayette police spokesman confirmed Lymon suffered a single stab wound.
According to sergeant Troy Harris, Lymon told hospital staff that he was injured at Nick's Nightclub, a bar in West Lafayette. The incident still is under investigation.
The Lafayette Journal and Courier's reported on its web site that Lymon underwent surgery.
The newspaper also reported that Nick Vukas, the club's owner, was not immediately aware of the stabbing but saw a fight break out in the middle of the bar at approximately 2 a.m.
"I believe this has to be seriously addressed," Vukas told the newspaper. "It breaks my heart to see something like this happen, for me and my staff. I pray that this young man will be OK."
A 6-4 junior, Lymon had 33 receptions for 580 yards and three touchdowns in 13 games - 12 starts - with the Boilermakers last season.
