Second Alderson Broaddus student arrested in connection with Wesleyan fight

BUCKHANNON, W.Va. — A second student at Alderson Broaddus University has been taken into custody in connection with a fight on the West Virginia Wesleyan campus last weekend.

Police have charged 20-year-old Mychael Knox, 20, of Virginia Beach, Va., with obstructing police in their investigation.

Mychael Knox is charged with obstructing police.

Investigators said they had a search warrant for Knox’s cell phone and he refused to give it to them. He’s in jail on $5,000 bail.

Steven Smith, 19, of Virginia Beach, Va. was taken into custody on Wednesday and charged with malicious wounding.

Authorities continue to investigate the incident which reportedly involved more than 20 students at the Kappa Alpha house just off the Wesleyan campus.  Wesleyan officials say a group of AB students wanted to attend a party at the house, but were told it was over.  The group returned with five car loads of people and attacked the member of the fraternity who denied them access.
