He was transported to the hospital where he was also treated for "gross intoxication." An initial investigation revealed Evans “fell and hit his head,” the release said.

However, the man’s girlfriend disagrees.

Elaina Ward told Channel 11 Evans was beaten and left for dead, to the point where "he has bleeding on the brain and in his lungs."

Evans is conscious, which is an upgrade from his condition Friday.

Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact Allegheny County Police at 1-833-255-8477.
