Gay-Bashing Victims Were Punched, Called “Faggots” Repeatedly, Court Doc Claims

Plus: 24 stitches required for one of the victims.

It has been more than two weeks since two gay men were attacked at 16th and Chancellor streets, and new details are still emerging.

Now that Kathryn Knott, Kevin Harrigan and Philip Williams have been charged with the crime, an affidavit of probable cause describing the incident has been made available by the court.

According to that document, the incident began when “words were exchanged” between the two groups of people, with suspect Kevin Harrigan allegedly calling the victims “faggots” several times before a “heated argument developed.” The affidavit also alleges that Knott screamed “faggots” at them and hit one of them in the face.

Below, the affidavit.
