The incident allegedly occurred in the parking lot of the Ann Arbor Golf and Outing Club across from Michigan Stadium. “Childs and the 13-year-old male did not know the victim prior to this incident, and this was a random attack,” according to the report

In my 24 years here, we’ve never had an incident of this nature with this type of violence in a public space at any U of M sporting event, so this is very concerning,” Theil said.
Childs, whose cash bond was set at $75,000, is reportedly being held at Washtenaw County Jail. The younger defendant, however, is reportedly being held at the Washtenaw County Juvenile Detention Center and was charged with first-degree sexual conduct with the intention to commit physical harm to the victim.
The City of Ann Arbor Communications Office did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller’s request for comment.
