Another UW La Crosse student was charged with obstruction in Homan's investigation. He is believed to be the last person to see Homan alive. He had told police Homan had gotten into an altercation with another bar patron and fled; he told a different story to Homan's friends and other UW students, saying he had been cut when he was punched by a man that was fighting with Homan and that three men were involved in the altercation. The young man appeared "upset and nervous" upon being questioned by the police during the search for Homan. He said three men had gotten into an altercation with Homan and then followed him out of the Vibe; these three men then returned without Homan and struck him with a beer bottle, cutting him. He immediately left the bar and headed home. Authorities stressed he was not involved in Homan's death, but was charged with giving conflicting accounts to police.See also
