After one resident of College Village in Batavia accused another resident Sept. 24 of sending a message via Facebook to her aunt, she and two other young women allegedly jumped the female victim.
The victim reported sustaining a head injury and bruised ribs.
The three suspects were all charged with assault in the second degree.
According to a deposition provided Deputy Jonathan Dimmig, who investigated the case with Deputy Nicholas Chamoun, the victim was in her dorm room at 8:05 p.m. on Sept. 24 when her roommate told her somebody was at the front door to see her.
According to police documents, the three women at the door were Diantha Danish Diarha Quandt, 19, whom the victim said she only knows as "DiDi," and Indya Denira Ford, 22, and Evedshardeny Sealliah Domacasse, 18.
All three were charged following an investigation and all three reportedly reside at College Village.
Ford claims the victim started the fight and that she and Domacasse tried to break it up.
The victim told Dimmig that she stepped outside, at the request of Quandt, to talk. She said her statement, "DiDi kept asking me if I sent something to her aunt through Facebook. I told her no and that I didn't understand her."
At that point, the victim's roommate came out of the dorm room and the victim said she told her roommate that everything was fine and she could go back in side.
"The girls kept asking me if I sent DiDi's aunt messages, which denied," the victim stated.
A third person reportedly told DiDi that the victim had contacted her aunt and Quandt got that person on a speaker phone and that person stated the victim did contact Quandt's aunt.
Quandt then, according to the statement, set her phone and other items on the window sill near where they were standing.
"I put my hands in my head," she said. "While I had my head in my hands, I was able to see DiDi raise her arm as though she was going to hit me. I then felt something hit the back of my head repeatedly. When I felt the first hit, I dropped to my knees and shielded my head and neck. I felt multiple people kicking me and pulling my hair. I stayed quiet and didn't fight back. I began to feel dizzy and then (the roommate) came back out and began to push the girls off me."
She continued, "All three girls began laughing and kicking my phone and other property."
That night, she went to ER at UMMC to get evaluated for a continuous headache, dizziness, and nausea.
She was told she sustained a closed head injury and bruised ribs.
After she returned home, she tried to sleep in a temporary dorm room but when she laid down, she realized she couldn't lay her head on her left side due to pain in her left ear and neck.
"The following day, my body felt sore all over. I still had a headache, and I was still suffering from nausea and dizziness," she wrote.
According to police documents, Ford told Dimmig that she and her friends were playing Uno when "DiDi" looked at her phone and started crying and ran out the door. She and Domacasse followed her, according to the statement. She said they tried to calm her down.
"She just kept saying, 'I wanna have a conversation with her,'" according to the document.
Ford reportedly told Dimmig that Quandt and the victim were talking and that for "30 seconds I was froze," and then, the victim, she said, jumped at Quandt.
"In a blink of an eye, they were fighting."
She claimed that she and Domacasse tried to break up the fight.
Quandt, Domacasse, and Ford were arrested the following day. All three were arraigned and ordered held on bail.
