A Carlisle player was charged Wednesday with Willful Injury, which is a Class C felony. According to a criminal complaint, the victim “received a serious enough concussion to render him unconscious” and he sustained a cut on his mouth that required four stitches.
The video, which has gone viral, shows the Carlisle-Nevada basketball game was over, and the players were in the post-game handshake line when the trouble began. Instead of shaking hands, Carlisle player No. 4 throws some surprise punches at a Nevada player wearing jersey No. 5.
The first punch was to the stomach. The second punch was to the jaw. The Nevada player appears to be knocked out as he fell to the floor. Several more students joined in the fight.
“The whole gym went crazy. No one knew what to do or nothing. And the Nevada guy was out for a good couple minutes. You could tell something was definitely wrong with him.”
A police report confirms Carlisle player Carter Prenosil was arrested and charged today.
