More arrests have
been made in the July beating of an 18-year-old gay man
in Edgewood, N.M. Leroy Segura, 21, has turned himself in to
police and faces several charges, including kidnapping
and aggravated battery causing great bodily injury,
according to KRQE TV in Albuquerque. Cecily
Gonzales, 16, was arrested Saturday and faces similar
charges.
In late July,
police reported that Segura, Gonzales, and two men already
in custody kidnapped the victim following a house party,
tied him up, and repeatedly beat him because he is
gay. (The Advocate)
