A Virginia dad has been arrested for allegedly attacking his son’s youth coach with a metal bottle during a weekend game.
Blerand Bxoha was accused of malicious wounding for allegedly hitting the coach’s face several times during a soccer match in George Hellwig Memorial Park, Manassas, on Saturday. The coach suffered a black eye, swelling and bruises to his face. Hoxha remains in jail without bail.
Vince Villanueva, the coach of the team, said that he does not know why Hxoha attacked Villanueva. He did recall however that they were losing badly at the time he was knocked down.
When I got him to put him back into the game and I asked him if he was okay, the father had gone over to speak to him. He said, “No, he is not,” and asked, “Coach, can I speak to you?” Then, everything went downhill,” Villanueva said to FOX 5.

Villanueva urged parents to let their children have fun instead of creating stress by criticizing a coach’s decision.
He said, “Let them do their jobs and make it fun for them.” “Kids already have enough stress with all the other things in their lives, so let them have a place to escape to.”
