The victim, a Coon Rapids man whom police have not identified, is in serious condition at Mercy Hospital. Police say he suffered fractures on his face and skull – injuries that required more than 50 stitches to close.

...

Police arrested King at the house without incident. He denied that he punched the victim, saying that the man just fell over while the two were talking.

Well that's believable.

Don’t Vikings do that sort of thing?

The original pillage people would have punched her in the face, raped, kidnapped and sacked the village and toasted Odin for a good outing.

There would appear to be plenty of felony behavior for interfering with a 911 call, and lying to police about the need for help, keeping the injured man from obtaining medical help, and the injury from the thug, and mostly, that the Viks think they can rehab a thug.

King is accused of punching him repeatedly and throwing him headfirst to the ground. The man was hospitalized in serious condition with skull and facial fractures, as well as with cuts that required more than 50 stitches to close, Sheriff’s Cmdr. Paul Sommer said.

The man “may have a very serious brain injury,” Sommer said.

I must live in a different world, a birthday party still going on at at 3:00 am? Like my Dad always told me “Nothing good happens after mid-night.”

...the man just fell over while the two were talking.

"...honest officer, he fell over into my fist, got up and fell over into my other fist!"

They should not be taken on a team with a history of criminal activity in the first place.

Character should have a lot to do with chosing players. Thugs cause too many problems and lose too many fans.

I can tell you that, as a store clerk who often works night shift, your pa is correct. The people up at this time are doing things they wouldn’t want other people to know about.

a Coon Rapids man
That sounds a bit politically incorrect


I was pondering which species the Rapids were named after and (sort of) concluded that since it was in Minn probably after the 4 legged species.
In the South it would have been a tad more direct.

Also figure the name is ‘grandfathered’ and back when places were being name the only species would have been the 4 legged ones.

However, one never knows.

This happened because he did not know the meaning of the word "celebrity," so he decided it was an insult?

Note to self: Never say ANYTHING to a professional football player.

He DOES look like a celebrity!!

It took some astute person to point this out, because, initially, I missed it, my bad.
