Youth basketball: Kid punches other player unconscious?

A youth league basketball player in Kansas City who was videotaped clotheslining and then beating another player until he was unconscious may face criminal charges in connection with the incident, according to a report.

Dale Vestal was coaching his 14-year-old son's basketball team from Lawrence, Kan., against a team from Wichita when a player clotheslined his son five minutes into the game.

Home video of the incident showed the player, who was not identified in the report, hitting Vestal's son several more times until he was unconscious.

The boy's father wants criminal charges filed against the player. The case has been handed over to the Harvey County attorney.
