A crowd of the fraternity members and social guests were gathered outside the house as Panagiotopoulos walked by and"began to taunt, verbally harass" and act aggressively toward him, allegedly due to a"mistaken belief" that he was a member of a different social club, the court document states. Panagiotopoulos suffered"severe" injuries, including traumatic brain injury, skull fracture, mental anguish and emotional distress as a result of the attack, according to his attorneys. He spent months in the hospital and was advised by his doctors to not fly to New York to visit his family for Christmas, his attorney, McConnell told ABC News.
