Firefighter Charged After Lacrosse Game Altercation

A Providence firefighter and father of a lacrosse player is charged with assault after allegedly grabbing and shaking a juvenile during a heated post-game confrontation at Brown University’s Division III championship. Witnesses say the incident erupted as teams headed to their buses, with Campbell yelling at Mt. Hope players — and the teen allegedly responding before being grabbed. Though no punches were thrown, the charge stands. This isn’t the first time such behavior has disrupted Rhode Island high school games — a similar incident in 2019 led to a lifetime ban for a father who slapped a coach. The league’s executive director then called the conduct “unbelievable” and “a societal issue.” Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
