Five Corning Community College students charged in dorm assault case

Five Corning Community College students are facing multiple charges following an alleged attack on two students outside a Perry Hall dormitory Wednesday night.

State police say surveillance footage captured the suspects approaching the victim’s room before the incident.

The victims, a man and a female student, suffered injuries; the man refused further treatment, while the woman was treated at Guthrie Corning Hospital.

The suspects, including basketball players Emmanuel Torres, Jalen Zachery and Yandiell Sanchez, were charged with crimes including gang assault, harassment and criminal mischief. All five were booked into the Steuben County Jail.

The investigation is ongoing, and more details will be released by the authorities.
