Many Bobcats will long remember the fun times they had last week during Spring Break, but a few now have memories they'd be glad to forget. Marylea Brown explains, in this Bobcat Update.

A lot of students returned from spring break this week looking tan and feeling rejuvenated. However, history major Josh Amador is happy just to be alive.

One of the men then walked toward the campers' vehicles and slashed a tire -- at first saying that he had tripped and accidentally cut the tire with his pocket knife. That's when matters turned for the worst.

One camper ran down the beach to a safe distance and called nine-one-one. Cops arrived within minutes and took control of the scene. Two of the three men were sent to emergency care; one knocked unconscious by a gardening hoe, the other with a self-inflicted stab wound.

Amador says the next morning one of the men returned to the campsite and began threatening the group from his vehicle. Police were again were called to the scene to protect the campers while they packed. Later the man who allegedly made the threats was found on the beach and arrested.

Although no court date has been set, Armador and his fellow campers say they plan to press charges against the three men for property damage, aggravated assault, attempted robbery and attempted murder.
