A dispute at a northern Chapel Hill trailer park led Chapel Hill Police to a Carrboro Apartment early Wednesday morning in pursuit of a suspect.

“The officers that responded there found a subject laying on the ground near one of the trailers who was bleeding from the head,” says Chapel Hill Police Public Information Sergeant Bryan Walker. “EMS transported this person to UNC Hospitals where he was admitted to the hospital.”

Christopher Jesus Delgadillo, 19, was admitted to the hospital. As of Wednesday afternoon, he was listed in fair condition according to UNC Health Care spokesperson Tom Hughes.

Oziel Zermeno, 23, was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon. The incident took place at Lakeview Mobile Home Park across from Timberlyne Shopping Center on Weaver Dairy Road.

“It shows that he was released under $500 unsecured bond—brought before the magistrate and released under that bond,” Sgt. Walker says.

He says no additional motives, such as an attempted robbery, were reported in connection with the assault.
