Father sues West Virginia fraternity over son's brain damage [View all]

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — A lawsuit said a man who fell down the stairs at a West Virginia University fraternity party has been permanently brain damaged.

It said fraternity brothers posed with David M. Rusko's unconscious body, squirted Ketchup on him and posted pictures on social media. By the time 911 was called two hours later, he was bleeding from the nose, foaming at the mouth and his brain wasn't getting enough oxygen.
