Authorities are investigating after a New Jersey high school football
player was caught on video ripping the helmet off an opponent and hitting him
with it, wounding the player so that he needed 10 stitches.
It was during the second quarter of Friday night's game between Linden and
Immaculata high schools when a Linden defensive lineman grabbed the helmet off
his opponent and smacked him in the head with it before chucking the helmet
aside, video shows.
The injured player went to Morristown Hospital and received 10 stitches for
his wound, Immaculata High School officials said.
Immaculata High School's athletic director, Thomas Gambino, said the
incident may have been overlooked during the game, but the injured player
"handled himself with restraint and maturity at the time, upholding
Immaculata's expectations for sportsmanship." -end-
