A 27-year-old coach was shot in the shoulder after officials say a bullet ricocheted off a pole. He was flown by Life Flight to a hospital and is expected to recover, organizers said.


quote:

Coaches told KPRC 2 they had heard faint gunfire at the same complex the day before, but Sunday’s shots were much closer, close enough that a stray round struck the coach on a neighboring field.

The RAC released a statement saying in part: “Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.”

Authorities said three people were questioned in connection with the shooting, but no arrests were made.

Parents at the tournament say the incident raises questions about where youth sports complexes are situated and whether fields are too close to areas where hunting or shooting occurs.

We were on the way to the field when we got the email. We had the 12:00 game. They cancelled everything for the rest of the day. It’s being reported that hunters were illegally dove hunting but I call BS.

Polish people are pretty damn tough.
Was it an o-lineman?

I figured an OT member would be on one side of the gun or maybe both.

If you're running drills where you can catch a stray, somebody has definitely called you Coarch in your career.

It wasn’t a hunting accident, I can almost guarantee that.
