In December 2021, Cole Hagan was brutally attacked after being lured outside his home during a party in Lake Jackson. He suffered multiple skull fractures and a broken collarbone. He had to be sedated and put on a respirator for his injuries.

Iden Holland, Logan Hoover, and Mitchell were all charged with aggravated assault in connection with the incident.

Hagan’s family has filed a lawsuit against the suspect. The lawsuit, filed in Brazoria County, seeks $50 million in damages from more than a dozen of his alleged attackers, alleging he knew about plans to “attack Cole Hagan.” .

Mitchell was 17, Hoover 17 and Holland 18 at the time of the attack. They were all named as defendants in the lawsuit, along with four other of his teenagers and their parents.

The complaint also accuses several people of negligence, alleging they knew or should have known about the plot to attack Hagan.

The father of one of the other teens accused of assault was also accused of giving alcohol to a minor.
