A high school football game in Ohio was cut short on Saturday after a player head-butted an official in the head before halftime, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Midway through the second quarter of Roger Bacon High Schools season-opener against Dayton Dunbar High, Roger Bacon was driving down the field when a penalty was called.
Suddenly, a Dunbar player could be seen on the game broadcast head-butting an official sending him flying backward. Per the report, that player then had to be restrained from chasing another official as multiple other flags were thrown.
Roger Bacon had already grabbed a 23-8 lead at that time, and kicked off the game with an 86-yard kickoff return for a touchdown.
The penalty that made the kid mad was their 12th penalty already, Roger Bacon coach Mike Blaut said, via the Cincinnati Enquirer. They were marking off the ball, half the distance to the goal line, and that's when he went right after the referee and head-butted him. He hit him on the right side of his head.
The player, who was not named in the report, ripped off his helmet before hitting the official, Blaut said.
