A Cal Poly nutrition major was arrested early Saturday morning near Broad and Marsh streets for allegedly assaulting two men.
Witnesses identified 23-year-old John Bradley Goetz from Alamo as responsible for hitting Anson Shaffer of Morro Bay and Michael Clifford of Los Osos in the head. Both men were knocked unconscious and taken by ambulance to the hospital to be treated for injuries.
Goetz was arrested on suspicion of felony assault and battery and taken to the San Luis Obispo County Jail. His bail is set at $50,000.
Police say alcohol appeared to have played a role in the incident.

I hate that excuse. I love going out and getting plastered as much as the next guy but have made it nearly 30 years without assaulting anyone while drunk. This guy is a moron, and alcohol just exposes that.
I wonder if a felony conviction is grounds for automatic expulsion from Cal Poly. I sure hope so.
I second the expulsion hope – although he might be too busy being in jail to go to class anyway.
