The person who was assaulted by the police officer (and he was) should file a complaint with the local government who hired the officer. Unless there is credible evidence that more people are dressed as officials and attempting to enter the field than are authorized, he has no jurisdiction over anything the official did. Its not his job to "enforce" the personal wishes of the coach.

I suspect this school district, like many nowadays, has its own security/police force. And they most assuredly DO have jurisdiction over who is on their campuses.

While this incident sounds terrible on its face, we don't know what the officer was actually told by the coach. Perhaps the officer misunderstood the coach. I'd hold off on all these threats of walkouts, etc until all the facts are known.

And as for the guy putting his arm up in front of someone...come on guys...are we that sensitive that we get so easily offended??? I doubt it or we would not be in this avocation anyway.
