Former Olympian Kim Glass says she suffered multiple face fractures after she was attacked in Los Angeles

Former Olympic volleyball player Kim Glass said she suffered multiple face fractures and her eye was swollen shut after she was attacked in downtown Los Angeles. Glass said she was injured when a homeless man, who has since been apprehended, threw a metal object at her face.

Glass, a silver medalist at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, said she was leaving lunch with a friend when she noticed a man on the opposite side of the street that had an object in his hand. The incident occurred on Friday, according to The Associated Press. 

"He just like looked at me with some pretty hateful eyes," Glass said. "It happened so fast, he literally flung it from the street, he was not even close to me at all."
