Three arrests after violent Boone County assault

Three men have been arrested after an attack and robbery that left one person unconscious in downtown Columbia.

Police say Kyle Johnson, 23; Emory Montie, 23; and Alexander Nolan, 19, are behind the assault on Seventh Street near Cherry at about 2 a.m. Sunday.

One of the two victims was hit a bunch of times, and had to go to the hospital for what authorities call extensive injuries. A necklace was stolen too.

The three suspects were booked into jail early Wednesday.
