Angry Father Attacks Boy Wrestler

The angry reaction of a suburban Chicago father was caught on tape this past weekend when his son was pinned by another wrestler during a wrestling match.

A home video shows Ray Hoffman's son being pinned to the mat by 11-year old Nick Nasenbeny during a tournament Sunday night. Suddenly, Hoffman enters the video, grabbing young Nick by the shoulders and throwing him off his son.

In an off camera interview, Hoffman said he regrets and is embarrassed by his behavior and that his son is being treated for a shoulder injury.

Nick and his father think Hoffman went too far.

"I mean there's a lot of different ways to stop a match, not to pick up my son and launch him five feet, 10 feet in the air," said Dan Nasenbeny.
