As of Monday night more than 1,000 people had joined the "Come Together for Ryan Diviney" group on Facebook in support of the critically injured 2008 Broad Run High School graduate.
Diviney suffered brain trauma in an altercation at West Virginia University over the weekend and has undergone surgery.
Ken Diviney reported on Monday evening the following update: "Ryan is staying strong. We pray that his brain is too. Things will be measured in weeks and months for him. We feel the love for him and I believe he feels it too. My family appreciates this beyond words."
Diviney was a baseball and football player while at Broad Run.
Morgantown police are searching for a large group, maybe as many as seven males, that attacked Diviney and two friends. The fight happened early Saturday morning at about 3:10 a.m. at the Dairy Mart on 600 Willey St. in the college town. In a news release, police said: "Witnesses advised that the fight involved 5 to 7 males attacking three males, with one of the three males (Diviney) being seriously injured."
Anyone who may have witnessed this incident or have information should contact the Morgantown Police Department at 304-284-7522 or the Morgantown Police Detective Divison at 304-284-7454.

Dan,
ReplyDeleteThanks for helping keep everyone informed. Please friend request me on FaceBook, as I try to update Ryan's status periodically. There is also a public FaceBook page that was created at some point yesterday that, from what I heard, had well over 1,000 people join within hours.
The support from the people of Lodoun County is amazing. They share our sadness and lift us up.
Ken Diviney
Thanks Ken ... may the power of positive thought and prayers from thousands heal Ryan.
