Members of anti-violence group arrested for assault

Two members of a anti-violence group in in Washington, Pennsylvania, were arrested by police, accused of beating a man unconscious. According to the Observer-Reporter, police arrested Emanuel Velez and Nikole Ardeno for punching and kicking 26-year=old Joshua Magraff.
Magraff had severe injuries and is in critical condition. The beating took place in Washington just before 4:30pm on Tuesday. Police said that Ardeno punched Magraff through the window of her vehicle. Then Velez got out from the passenger side and punched Magraff in the head, knocking him to the ground.
Police say the two them kicked Magraff while he lay unconscious on the sidewalk. Ardeno and Velez were arrested a short time later. The day before the beating, police say Ardeno, who is the co-coordinator for the Stop the Violence group, led a peace rally through the streets of Washington.
When police arrested her, she was wearing the same white “Stop The Violence” shirt from Monday’s rally. Velez wasn’t at the rally, but police say he is a member of the same anti-violence group. Investigators believe the two attacked Magraff because he was a former roommate and went to the apartment to collect his belongings.
