    https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/oak-park-youth-wrestler-punched-in-the-face-after-match-parents-seek-to-press-charges

    On April 8, Oak Park police responded to River Forest High School after a victim sustained a bloody nose during a youth wrestling competition.

    After the match was over, the wrestler who won the match was ready to shake hands with his opponent, when the opponent punched him in the face.

    When officers arrived, they spoke with the victim and the victim's parents along with the offender and the offender's parents.

    The parents declined to have an ambulance respond but told responding officers that they wished to have the incident documented, but did not want to press charges at that time.

    On April 11, one of the parents of the victim contacted police and said they wanted to pursue criminal charges.

    No charges have been filed at this time, but Oak Park police are continuing to investigate.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Such things were unheard of when we were in school. But outside of sports? Plenty of fistfights. I cannot help but wonder if it relates to the zero tolerance policies today. Lots of anger pent up.

        Something in the water - that high school and this gas station are both about a half mile from my house.
