Deputies with the Pierce County Sheriff's Department are looking for a suspect who allegedly assaulted a high school football coach from the opposing team after losing a state semifinal game. FOX13
According to deputies, the Yelm High School football coach was walking back to his car after his team won the Class 3A semifinals against Bellevue when he was attacked from behind and punched in the head.
The coach was then knocked to the ground and kicked repeatedly by other individuals, deputies said. It appears the attacker was a Bellevue fan and was upset about the 28-27 game, deputies say. "There's no excuse. If you are a spectator, be a spectator," said Sgt. Darren Moss with the Pierce County Sheriff's Department. "There's no reason to go after somebody over a game."
The case isn’t currently being actively investigated due to a lack of department resources, Moss said.If you have any information on the assault, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. that I have read and agree
