An Oakville man has been charged after police said a bottle was thrown into a crowd during a large gathering at the University of Guelph.

Police said a first-year student was at the outdoor event on Sept. 28 when they were hit by a large glass bottle around 2:30 a.m.

The victim received medical attention on campus before going to Guelph General Hospital. The student was diagnosed with a concussion and required stitches.

An 18-year-old Oakville man, who is not a university student, was arrested this week and charged with assault causing bodily harm.
