Crime Parents of high school track star sucker-punched during race are considering lawsuit 'against attacker after they were stopped from pressing charges - Pigs threatened to arrest white victim if charges laid

Article (archive)
The family of a high school track star who was sucker-punched during a race say they had wanted to press charges against his attacker but deputies had threatened to arrest their son if they'd done so.

Now, the family is considering filing a civil lawsuit against the other student and the track invitation event that hosted the race, their attorney says.

Shocking video of the attack during the Tohopekaliga Tiger Invitational in Kissimmee last Saturday captured the incident as a pack of runners coming down the track in the 1,600-meter race when a teen comes up from behind and punches the athlete in the lead in the back of the head.

The runner goes down and stays on the ground as the rest of the team run past. His family's attorney, Nathan Carter, revealed the teen suffered a concussion following the attack.

There was allegedly an altercation before the attack, where the victim had told the attacker to move out of his way. When he refused, during an earlier lap, the victim had pushed him, according to TMZ.

At the time, Osceola County Sheriff's Office claimed that the victim, who has not been identified, had not wanted to press charges, but his family have disputed that claim, with their attorney telling the outlet that their son would have been arrested for battery had they filed criminal charges.

'The family has read reports that the OCSD claims [my client] refused to press charges,' Carter said in a statement.

'This is false.'

The family of a high school track star who was sucker-punched during a race say they had wanted to press charges against his attacker but deputies had threatened to arrest their son if they'd done so. The unnamed high school runner, pictured above in a white top and red shorts, right before he was punched in the head during the 1,600m race

'The family of the victim did want to press charges for this vicious attack and assault caught on video and witnessed by hundreds of people. The OCSD deputy told the family that if [my client] pressed charges then he would also be arrested for battery.'

'Only because of this threat did the family choose not to press charges.'

Now, Carter states the family is 'exploring civil remedies against all those responsible.'

'If this event hired proper officials to help run this track meet, they could have prevented this,' Carter added.

'They could have prevented the CC athlete from standing on the track during the first turn. Or they could have moved the CC athlete after the first lap incident. Or they could have moved the CC athlete before the second lap incident. Or they could have stopped the CC athlete before he chased [my client] down and sucker-punched him.'

'They had many opportunities to prevent this and failed to do so.'

Video of the event showed the stunned response of spectators after the punch was thrown.

'Are you f***ing kidding me?!' one person could be heard saying repeatedly while others simply screamed in horror.

Event organizers have not yet commented on the incident.

The runner was left in a heap on the ground at the side of the track, although he did manage to complete the race

If the victim did lay hands on the guy who punched beforehand, and if that is the case, both are in the wrong here.

Being told that "You're probably going to get arrested for assault" if you make a complaint against a guy who has also decided not to make a complaint where he could isn't unreasonable. It's probably good advice.

Appropriate Username Mr.Greenberg.

White kids interrupt a first dance between bride and groom by playing in the fog machine smoke; go on to become respectable citizens.

Black kids run wild and twerk at Chuck E Cheese; go on to assault and murder.

And idiots wonder why racism.

 

[Dog-O-Tron 5000v5.0]

So did the black guy win the race?

Serious question, because if the schools and track officials don't disqualify someone over that, it sanctions attacking your competitors and turns HS track into gladiatorial combat.

This guy was LOOKING for a fight and the organizers and people in charge did nothing.

They let the attacker stand on the fucking track.

if there was a previous altercation between the two, as claimed then the cops are legally in the right. They did exactly what they were supposed to do. The cops didn't threaten or stop anything (nor do they have any legal authority to stop anyone from pursuing charges), they just made it clear that if the parents of the kid who got punched during the race wanted to make an issue of that then the parents could and likely would do the same over that incident. Whether it was proportional or not is entirely irrelevant and for the court to decide not the cops

That's a big if

So far there is no evidence of a previous altercation, but there is plenty of evidence of the nigger attacking the white. And if there was some exchange of words, words do not merit a violent attack. If the cops told the parents that they would arrest the victim with no proof, then the parents would be better off filing a civil suit against the department as I can assure you the niggers don't have money and the organizers can barely be blamed for what one nigger did

However

TMZ reported that witnesses observed that the person dressed in black shorts and a t-shirt who threw the punch was not part of the race. He was standing on the track and the runner who was in the first place told him to move away before he got punched in the face.

The teen attacker refused to move and in the following lap, which was not recorded, the athlete reportedly pushed the attacker out of the way and knocked him down since the boy dressed in black was deliberately getting in his way.

If this is true, then this is genuinely a poorly ran meet. During my track days we were told if we got in the way then our whole school would be disqualified.

Normally a cop would ask him what the fuck he was doing standing in the middle of the track in the middle of a race. But this is the west so the police have to press charges against the athlete who caught a concussion to avoid any accusations of muh racism.

He was standing on the track to fuck with people to make sure one of his buddies won and not anyone else.

The event organizers could have removed him three fucking times (1st corner, 1st lap, 2nd lap) before he sucker punched the other guy but chose not to.

Because, you know, they'd get accused of racism to tell him not to stand in the track interfering with other athletes so his friend can place better.

They're throwing a lawsuit over a punch? What is this, some sort of competitive homosexuality tournament? C'mon.

I would think like that if it was two white kids this involved, and they had like an overly competitive relationship going on and things just got out of hand that one day. Because after it was all over, the offender would shake hands with the boy he punched and all would be well. But since it was a jealous nigger getting angry at this speedy gentleman for embarrassing him in a competition of athletic prowess, fuck that. Sue the nigger, sue the cops, sue the organization that was in charge of the track meat, take them all down. The only way these retards learn is when you take their money.

From what I understand the nigger wasn’t even in the race.

Wish I could say that was true, but that's becoming less and less effective, especially when you're dealing with entities that can just raid the taxpayers' pockets or organizations with deep pockets that won't feel a thing since a judgment represents a mere fraction of their yearly profits.

At least the nigger can suddenly find himself dangling by his own shoelaces neck-first from a sturdy oak tree. I have no clue what else to do about the organization other than Minecraft the lot of them.

He is part of a subhuman race, however.

[Crazedking]

So nigger fucks with ppl on the track so white athlete tell him to fuck off and eventually push him off (allegdly). Nigger comes back while white athlete is running and suckerpunch (because niggers cant fight fair). PC organiser didnt deal with black because muh racism and police is like muh racism you started it so you deserve a suckerpunch.

Nigger worship at its finest. Shown in this thread gloriously as the niggerlovers talk about their love of the niggerdick.

What kind of mentally handicapped nigga tries to haymaker someone on the track and not just pick a fight in the shower or parking lot later where he can't be filmed or booed at by like everyone.

Dumb nigga huffs farts prob on the daily with this level of brain power, lol.

The family of a high school track star who was sucker-punched during a race say they had wanted to press charges against his attacker but deputies had threatened to arrest their son if they'd done so.

If they can prove that, they're about to become millionaires. Cops aren't allowed to use arrest as a weapon, and given how out of favor cops are with the left at the moment, they're almost guaranteed to get reamed in court. Remember, the left hates cops more than they love black people.

This is what use of force doctrines were originally about. Preventing corrupt cops from arresting people out of spite. I'm sure they thought they were being good little foot soldiers of the state protecting a Marginalized Person from White Supremacy. I hope they're not too surprised when they find out exactly how the state rewards their golems.

Because he couldn't steal a win from that cracker if he waits for the showers and impulse control is for white people..

So at best, black guy was standing too close and gets bumped by a runner. At worst, guy is actively impeding the race and the white kid pushed him out of the way because the kid was an asshole.

Are the cops black?
