Three Florida A&M University band members have been arrested in connection with the beating of a woman during hazing rituals that became so severe that her thigh was broken, the Tallahassee police said Monday. The police said that on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, the three struck the legs of the woman, Bria Shante Hunter, with their fists and a metal ruler to initiate her into the Red Dawg Order, a band clique for students who come from Georgia. Ms. Hunter told the police that days later, the pain became so unbearable that she went to the hospital. Her thigh bone was broken and she had blood clots in her legs. Ms. Hunter’s beatings came about three weeks before a Florida A&M drum major, Robert Champion, 26, was killed while on a band trip to Orlando. The police have said hazing was involved but have made no arrests in that case. The band has been suspended from performing.
