Man accused in wedgie case

Aug. 26, 2002 |

LOWER SOUTHAMPTON, Pa. (AP) -- A man accused of trying to kill a friend
who gave him a "wedgie" will stand trial on an attempted murder charge, a
judge ruled.

Daniel Strouss, 19, was attending a Phish concert last year when Eric
Kassoway sneaked up behind him and yanked up his underwear, according to
testimony at a hearing Thursday.

Strouss, of Richboro, held a grudge for months before shooting Kassoway on
June 12, authorities said.

On the night of the shooting, Strouss drove to Kassoway's home and waited
until Kassoway came home, then shot him in the arm and leg, authorities
said. Kassoway nearly died from loss of blood.

Strouss' attorney, Al Cepparulo, said he did not dispute the prosecution's
version of events.

"This is a tragedy for the victim. All I can say is my client is going
through therapy," he said last week.
