Officers charge umpire, coach after fight at Cornerstone Park

Officers charged an umpire and a coach after responding to reports of a fight in progress at Cornerstone Park, officials said. Both individuals were cited under fighting Ordinance 12.3.05, and the matter remains under investigation, officials said in a Facebook post.

Police thanked community members who reported the incident and provided information to officers, officials said. The post urged residents to continue reporting concerns that affect safety in public spaces.

Officials said recreational facilities exist to bring the community together to share positive experiences in a safe environment and that the behavior involved in the incident “falls well short of that standard and has no place in our parks,” according to the post.

Officials said they will continue to hold people accountable and work to keep community spaces safe for everyone who uses them. This is a developing story and will be updated as more details emerge.
