ATLANTA (AP) - A 33-year-old Georgia Tech alum who attacked a
research fellow with a samurai sword on campus last week previously
scuffled with the victim about a woman.

Five months ago at a dance on campus, Kshitij Shrotri, the
alleged attacker, became incensed when he saw a woman he liked
dancing alongside Samer Tawfik.

According to a Georgia Tech police report, Shrotri yelled in an
undetermined foreign language and then pushed Tawfik several times.

Police say the unidentified woman considered filing a protection
order against Shrotri, but decided that would only aggravate him.

That report last September notes that Shrotri, who earned a
Ph.D. from Tech in 2008, had moved to Delaware.

Tawfik, underwent surgery at Grady Memorial Hospital following
the attack.
