A Michigan high school football player has publicly condemned his teammate’s “horrible decision” to slam their opponent in an “illegal move” that broke his spine.
The incident occurred last week when a Kalamazoo Central High School player bellyflopped onto a Lakeshore High School player, who was already lying on the ground. The move left the teen with a broken vertebrae in his lower spine, his family said. The two players involved in the incident, both teens, have not been publicly identified.
