(Canada) - Police have arrested two men in connection with two homophobic assaults that happened in Hamilton in the early hours of Dec 9. The victims left separately from the Embassy nightclub, a predominantly Gay venue. One man was knocked to the ground and then punched and kicked in the head by as many as three men in their early 20s around 3 am. The second victim suffered a similar attack about a half hour later. Police say the first victim was hospitalized and released but has returned to hospital several times since the incident for treatment of a head injury. Det Sgt Chris Kiriakopoulos says the victim has undergone X-rays and an MRI. Kiriakopoulos says the attacks were clearly homophobic.
