Player Carelessly but Unitnentionally Injures Official

We had an official in our association injured Friday night. At the end of the play, the runner was on the ground screaming in pain. Turned out he had a cramp. As the offical neared, the player ripped off his helmet and threw it at full force, striking the official in the knee.

According to the crew, there was no doubt he did not mean to strike the official, but is he accountable for his actions? Would your answer change based on whether or not the official could continue to officiate the contest?
