Update 2: The preliminary hearing has been moved to April 29.
UPDATE: Austin’s mugshot has surfaced online.
Austin Carlile has undergone arraignment on felonious assault charges stemming from an incident that occurred over the weekend in Bowling Green, Ohio.

Additionally, he has been released on bond with the condition he have no contact, direct or indirect, with the victim until further order from the court. He is also not to cause, attempt, or threaten harm against any person or property.

Thank god he’s out on bond..
Love Austin forever and no matter what
HAAAAA THAT’S WHAT THE SCENEFAG GETS
Austin if you ever do see this, just know that we always love you no matter what <3
@twitter-337973909:disqus you’re disgusting! if you don’t like him why even look at anything to do with him. You seriously must be so pathetic to waste your time writing comments like that.
theyll take em back.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
If you don’t him, don’t look to anything that has to do with him. You don’t need to go bashing someone. And He’s not “Scene.” So do us all a favor and stop being a asshole.
Scene? lol. you’re dumb as shit. Cunt
really? so you wouldnt punch someone who insulted a 14 year old girl who just died from fucking cancer? i have no hope for humanity left
is this a april fools joke?
He is far from Scene. And if he were it wouldnt matter. Its bigots like you that are tearing our nation apart.
hes just a troll guys -_-
I would be very surprised if this isn’t an April Fool’s joke.
to be fair, no if someone was making fun of a cancer victim, i wouldn’t punch them in the face, because that makes you just as bad. If everyone went around punching people hwo stay stupid shit in the face, the world would be ridiculous.
HOW ABOUT YOU FUCK OFF YOU GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING SON OF A FUCK ASS BITCH!!
25,000 dollars? holly shit man. i want to know the whole story before i judge what happened, but i know for a fact the`s no way austin would hurt someone without a good enough reason to. he`s a good man with good morals. i know it`s bad to put him on a pedestal here, but hey, he`s my idol, man.
and if the world was filled with people like you, we’d all be spineless, soft, and weak. I agree with statements like yours sometime but our worlds just becoming so soft, sensitive, and weak because of you
Shut the f*ck up!! I mean seriously, what did he ever do to you? Oh…What’s that…Nothing? Exactly what I thought. Commenting on stuff just to be an asshole, that truly is pathetic. Keep your hatred to yourself and move on with your life. Thank you!
He is still amazing. This entire band is just amazing. Good for him for sticking up for her. Love you Austin.
we’ll hope for the best for Austin<3
honestly with a mind set like that you’re going no where in life… screw you
Shut the hell up
Austin is my inspiration, he means the world to me. I think that he did the right thing by putting that guy in his place for talking about the girl that just died from cancer. He sticks up for what he believes in. I love you Austin <333
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBY2NrvAN2I Lol. Cute, ‘scenefag’
the world can also blame people like you for genocide, war, and murder. what seperates us from animals is our ability to think using logic and morals. im not saying that the man making fun of a cancer victim is in the right, honestly i hope one day he knows the pain of loosing someone to cancer like some of us unfortunate souls, but that does not constitute bodily harm. i myself am an violent record felon, and from my own personal experiences, and from what i have seen just mere fists can do, i can honestly say causing bodily harm on someone in anger is never the answer and i am very disappointed in austin, of which i have been a fan of since attack attack!’s demo shit.
saweet, means ill still be seeing him on the 10th ;)
Sounds like someone else who just bashes on those who aren’t afraid to be themselves…. Nobody likes what they don’t understand anymore….
He knocked someone out for making fun of a fan who recently died of cancer. He had a reason, he was bullied in school and he doesn’t want others to be hurt like he was. He doesn’t put up with it, the two people made it even worse for themselves considering he has anger problems and was very close to this fan. Of Mice & Men even cancelled a few shows to go to her funeral. This is not an April Fools joke either for those of you who keep saying it is.
I hope you die of motherfucking cancer!
Well that escalated quickly.
No need to be immature about this. We all make stupid choices and mistakes and sometimes we let people’s words get to us and we’re all like this. There’s karma and cause and effect and stuff like that so yes, I suppose, he does get this. But you’re really immature and I’m still fine to looking up to him because even idols aren’t perfect.
i like your use of profanity, have a little class buddy
Turns out he got a tattoo of a girls name that died friday. she had cancer and wanted to see OMnM but couldnt. the guy was giving him shit for the tattoo. hence facee meet fist.
guys… April Fools maybe? naaaaaaaaaaah
Bigots? What in the world’s name is BIGOTS?
Shut up Mitch Lucker, you’re supposed to be dead. Go back and rest.
Cancer IS NOT A JOKE what the hell is wrong with you?
Bigots – The Plural Form of Bigot.
Bigot -noun
a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion.
(from Dictionary.com)
Used in a sentence – Stop keeping families separated and hire people who are intelligent but not bigots.
or
Its bigots like you that are tearing our nation apart.
A bigot is someone who only believes their opinion is right. My god people go to school!
A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing from their own or intolerant of people of different political views, ethnicity, race, class, religion, profession, sexuality or gender.
however due to the internet many people make fun of everything and i mean everything he is an artist and”idol” to many he needs to act in a mature way this is going to affect Austin
more than the victim
I don’t really care what he did, I don’t know him personally. Regardless, I still love his music.
I smell April Fools. . .
some people seriously have no intelligence whatsoever. someone very close to me has just finished chemotherapy for breast cancer, and if anyone, and i mean ANYONE, ever said anything that was degrading, rude, basically anything but nice, i would knock their teeth down their throat. WAY TO GO AUSTIN. You’ll always be an idol of mine. No matter what any of these faggots have to say. They just have no style so they have to go around putting people that do have it down. I’ve been a long time fan for years, since A.A. was just starting out, EVERYONE makes mistakes. I don’t care if your the pope or the president. You’ve fucked up once or twice.
i’m confused as to exactly why what happened other than the assult or what ever… could someone possibly patch over a link to a more in depth story, please? thank you if you do
He is my hero. He really is a decent person who has spoken out against bullies just like many other bands. All him and his band did for that little girl was above and beyond what most people would have done. I would of beat someones ass to. There is a line yu do not cross,
if austin carlile is your idol, you should reassess your life decisions
it’s not your job to comment on what idols people should have. i’m not even a fan of Of Mice & Men and i know Austin Carlile is a good person. If all you are going to do is hate on this page then please leave.
i saw him the other day and he even dedicated a song to her, and now to find out some idiot wanted to make fun of her. A girl that died from cancer a fan that was very dear to austin’s heart and people say that they hate him or that he’s not a good person STFU and learn the whole story because if it was your friend you would have punched that guy too.
