He was not pushed down. I saw it on national news. The victim tapped on the coach's car window. Coach got out and delivered a fist to the face. He was knocked down and struck his head on the sidewalk. He is only facing a misdemeanor assault charge. Must be details we don't know because that would normally be a manslaughter charge.
As they say, if you are looking for trouble, you can find it.
Edited to add: Just got a new release on the kid the coach punched out. Victim thought it was his Uber ride, so he rapped on the window. Charges are expected to be upgraded:
Jamill Jones, 35, an assistant for the Demon Deacons, turned himself in to police Thursday afternoon. He's charged with third-degree assault but those charges will likely be upgraded.
So now the man that died is a kid, isn't 35 a little old to be a kid? And he was only tapping on windows and not banging?
The New York Post cited law enforcement sources in reporting that a local resident confronted Szabo about the noise he was making, and that Szabo hit that person in the face. Jones, said to have been parked in an SUV that Szabo knocked on, got out and punched him, after which Szabo was taken to a hospital, only to die of his injuries on Tuesday.
Per the New York Post, the medical examiner has yet to determine if the punch allegedly thrown by Jones led to Szabo's death, and the charges against him could change. An anonymous 17-year-old witness told WPIX earlier in the week that he and the man who punched Szabo propped the latter up against a car so that Szabo "would stop choking on his blood until the ambulance came
