Three teenage soccer players are facing manslaughter, assault and public violence charges for beating a volunteer referee to death following a soccer game this weekend in Almere, the Netherlands.
Richard Nieuwenhuizen was a linesman for a youth soccer match between Buitenboys, his son’s team, and Nieuw Sloten. After Sunday’s game, Nieuwenhuizen, 41, was shaking players’ hands when the three players, two 15-year-olds and one 16-year-old, surrounded him, pushed him to the ground, and began attacking him.
