MADISON, Wis. -- A former University of Wisconsin-Platteville student has settled a civil lawsuit alleging two men beat him up because he was gay.

Brett Timmerman's lawsuit claims that he walked into a sandwich shop in Platteville in July 2005 when Oden Waite and Enove Urias made anti-gay remarks to him, put him in a headlock and took him to the ground. Timmerman claims that Waite spit on him twice.

Timmerman's attorney, Jim Madigan, said that he reached the deal with Waite's attorneys last week. He said that the settlement calls for terms to remain undisclosed.

Timmerman's lawsuit against Urias remains active in Grant County.
