www.fox5dc.com/news/parent-attacks-soccer-coach-with-metal-water-bottle-in-manassasExperienced local Coach was filling in for a friend(!). The suspect/parent was apprehended and charged. Not many other details given. Additionally, I hope the club takes action and the parent is disallowed back by club to be on the sidelines. And if prior history, even (unfortunate for the kid) remove child from the team. Doesn't matter the age/group/level. Parents should be (positive, respectful, supporting) spectators. Players play, and Coaches coach!

The poor kid and other kids having to watch this... |

Quick Google search on the perpetrator shows the guy was arrested for shooting two people in 2012. I think this goes beyond the usual crazy soccer parent story. The guy shouldn't be out walking the streets.
