(Vernon-AP, Aug. 1, 2006 3:20 PM) _ An assistant coach for the UConn men's basketball team is in trouble today with police.
Andre LaFleur, who's been an assistant to Coach Jim Calhoun for two years, was arrested this morning in Vernon and charged with breach of peace.
Police say LaFleur yelled at a Vernon recreation department worker who wouldn't let LaFleur enroll his child in a town program that had already been filled.
Police say another worker called officers when she became frightened by the profanity-laden tirade.
They also say LaFleur cited his connection to UConn's basketball team in an attempt to convince the workers to enroll his child in the fully booked program.
He was released later today on a five-hundred-dollar bond.
Don't you know who I AM!???
Judging from his picture, it's easy to see why the social worker was intimidated. He looks like one big dude.
Exactly.
