The impact of the assault was severe enough to destroy Paige’s phone, and Grace’s device was also damaged during the incident. Following the attack, the perpetrator quickly fled the scene on a bicycle, leaving both women traumatized but physically unharmed.

TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk provided updates on the situation, stating, “Paige has filed a police report with University Police, who are thankfully taking this matter seriously and are currently searching for the individual. Thankfully, Paige and her chapter VP Grace are both physically doing okay.”

Later developments revealed the arrest details, with Kirk announcing, “Collin County, Texas has made the arrest public. The attacker has been charged with multiple felonies and is identified as an Asian MALE named Liam Thanh Tam Nguyen. More trans violence.”

The perpetrator now faces multiple serious charges, including two counts of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Assault on a Peace Officer/Judge, Resisting Arrest, Search, or Transport, Attempt to Take a Weapon from an Officer, and two counts of Criminal Mischief valued between $750 and $2,500.

This attack represents more than an isolated violent incident; it reflects a broader pattern of hostility fostered by academic institutions and media outlets that routinely vilify conservative viewpoints and encourage radical responses against them.
