A New Jersey high school basketball coach was assaulted Tuesday night, allegedly by his own players.
It happened around 9 p.m. outside Malcolm X. Shabazz High School on Johnson Avenue in Newark.
Authorities say a school official provided police with a social media post of the school employee, a JV coach, being assaulted by members of the basketball team.
The officers reportedly observed four members of the team assaulting the victim after they exited a bus upon returning from a basketball game in Livingston.
