The man who bit and kicked a woman on Saturday night, while screaming about Obama, is a student at the business school and has been charged with third-degree assault. The court papers filed yesterday state that Ash Sinha “grabbed his victim’s hair at 116th St. and Broadway, threw her to the ground, punched and kicked her, and bit her leg,” the NYDaily News reports. The attack appears to have been unmotivated, and the victim was not a student. Sinha is currently being detained in the psychiatric ward of Bellevue Hospital, where he was moved after reportedly smashing medical equipment at Harlem Hospital. He has another scheduled court appearance today. Only the NYPost’s version of the story claims that Sinha was drunk.
Some comments on our initial post claimed that Public Safety did not take action, but multiple reports corroborate the story that officers restrained Sinha until the NYPD arrived. Public Safety has remained unreachable for comment by phone and e-mail since we first reported the incident.

@Wow... Columbia really does drive people crazy…
@Anonymous YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!
@well This is a bad thing, but if somebody had to do it, at least it was a B-schooler.
@prob will still get hired by mckinsey and make 200 grand a year straight outta b school. meanwhile im making 30k at my NGO.
@well then you should probs go to business school?
@Anonymous stop bitching, start a revolution
@person revolutions are total sausage fests
@that actually makes sense. The biggest tools I enounter at the gym are almost always from the law or business school.
@Oh c'mon What’re the odds that you’ve come to this conclusion based on your own expectations and then you’ve organized facts behind it all?
@Interesting the biggest douchebags I encounter are almost always anthro/colonialism/hunger strike types
@Ugh He was having a psychotic episode, not being a tool, you tool.
@Anonymous why can’t we just all agree that grad students suck and leave it at that.
