The family of a high school track star who was sucker-punched during a race say they had wanted to press charges against his attacker but deputies had threatened to arrest their son if they'd done so.
Now, the family is considering filing a civil lawsuit against the other student and the track invitation event that hosted the race, their attorney says.
Shocking video of the attack during the Tohopekaliga Tiger Invitational in Kissimmee last Saturday captured the incident as a pack of runners coming down the track in the 1,600-meter race when a teen comes up from behind and punches the athlete in the lead in the back of the head

I think I see the problem.
Cops are useless.
But it’s just a game called knockout.
Yep, knew it before I even looked.
The victim’s family should sue the school district for millions.
Is there a photo of when the victim knocked over the attacker earlier?
“Cops are useless.”
If this story is true, then they are worse than useless.
What it really was, was a racial black attacking a white hate crime.
What logic the cops used threatening to arrest the victim is beyond me....I’m thinking the suit should name them as well.
on what grounds would they be able to charge the kid that got sucker punched?? Makes no sense.
And use $500 of the money to hire a couple illegals to take the attacker into a nearby alley and directly register their disdain for such actions. A couple months laid up might get the point across.
Do not hesitate. File a lawsuit and include the Sheriff’s Department also!
Haven’t they heard that it is part of the Black Privilege to be able to attack anyone they want and get away with it?
According to the Putinistas the Daily Mail just makes things up lol.
Maybe he was playing Will Smith.
Family should get a lawyer.
There are no laws for blacks anymore , free to do what ever they want and they’re taking advantage of it big time
"You can beat the rap but you can't beat the ride."
Yeah. Now I see it as well. I had no idea. It’s actually a hate crime.
“part of the Black Privilege to be able to attack anyone they want and get away with it?”
If it happens to me I’m not gonna be the only one bleedin’.
