Jared Fogle, the former Subway pitchman imprisoned after he admitted sex crimes against minors last year, has reportedly been beaten in prison by an inmate who “can’t be around child molesters.”

First reported by TMZ, the beating occurred on Jan. 29 at Englewood Prison near Denver, where Fogle, 38, is serving a 15-year sentence. The alleged assailant was Steven Nigg, 60.

“He had to hit him. That’s how the whole thing started,” Jimmy Nigg, Steven Nigg’s nephew, told People. “He just can’t be around child molesters. He doesn’t like them.” He added: “He can’t figure out why you would do that to kids … He says, ‘I can’t be around those people.'” Read more at Washingtonpost.com.
