Dumb Cops: Referees File Complaint Against Texas Officer Who Questions Call During HS Football Game
CLEVELAND, Texas -- In Cleveland near Tarkington High School, turmoil on the gridiron has touched a raw nerve.
"The kid was on the ground and it looked like he was just strangling him," said Joyce Jackson, as she described what happened during last Friday night's game that pitted the Tarkington Longhorns against the Splendora Wildcats.
She saw the controversial play when players from opposing teams began to tussle with one another, and then the moment when Liberty County Precinct 5 Constable L.W. DeSpain charged onto the field.
"I thought there was going to be a riot really," said Jones.
