MOULTRIE — A Moultrie man reported he was severely beaten by five other men after they ran out of beer Thursday.

Sergio Ramirez, 35, of Moultrie, was brought to Colquitt Regional Medical Center with serious injuries to his face. A hospital spokesperson said he was transferred to the Medical College of Georgia in Macon for treatment, but his condition there was not known.

A 15-year-old girl reported a Hispanic male came to her house on Circle Road Thursday saying a man was lying in the road bleeding. Colquitt County EMS took the man, later identified as Ramirez, to Colquitt Regional for treatment of his injuries.

While there, a Colquitt County sheriff’s deputy spoke with Ramirez through a translator. Ramirez stated that about 3 p.m. Thursday he and five other Hispanic men had been drinking beer at a house on Circle Road, the report said.

When he ran out of beer and told the other men about it, Ramirez stated the five men began to beat him. The full extent of his injuries was not known, and deputies searched for a “Fidel” who Ramirez stated was involved but he could not be located.
