The police are investigating a brutal fight between referees at a youth basketball game in Colorado right in front of the kids.
According to reports, the fight went down during a 4th-grade boys’ hoops game, Cherry Creek vs. Legend Blue over the weekend at the Gold Crown Field House in Lakewood, CO.
The clip clearly shows two referees square up on the court after some type of disagreement … when one of the refs throws a massive right hook, knockin’ down the other official.
The ref attempted to throw more punches, but was held back by bystanders.
The ref who was dropped eventually got up … but he wasn’t done fighting. The man then got into a stand-off with another official … but thankfully no punches were thrown this time.
This is what the Gold Crown Foundation had to say about the brutal fight.
“We have informed these independently contracted officials that they are suspended indefinitely from working for Gold Crown Foundation.
“Most importantly we apologize to everyone that had to witness their unacceptable behavior – especially the kids.
“We look forward to getting our league back on track, and resume what will be a great season for the kids.”
What could have pushed these referees to throw punches at each other right in front of the kids? It’s good they have been suspended with investigations ongoing.
