A hotel room where a construction crew was staying became the scene of a violent alleged assault after a disagreement over whether workers should leave their jobs together, according to the authorities.
Police were called after a supervisor reported that one member of the crew had been taken to the hospital with a serious head injury. The authorities learned that several members of the same grain bin construction crew had recently lost or left their jobs, while the injured worker reportedly chose to remain employed.
According to the authorities, one of the former workers allegedly warned earlier that day that anyone who refused to quit would be killed that night. The victim later told officers that three former coworkers came to his room and allegedly attacked him because he refused to leave the job.
