Man killed after a football game today - Violet Klimaszewski


Today, a volunteer football referee was beaten to death after a match by 3 boys on a team he attended today. He was sent to the nearest hospital in critical condition and was pronounced dead at 5:30 local time (in Deutschland). The attackers were apprehended earlier today. The director of the club that the man was volunteering for sent out a formal apology stating that he was sorry that this had to happen to someone who was just enjoying his hobby, and he hopes to prevent any more deaths of this nature from occurring. He also said that anyone involved in the assault will be expelled from the club.

…What I want to know is what could have possibly provoked such anger at this guy for (allegedly) just doing his job. Perhaps those 3 lost the game and they bet on the game with money they didn’t have to repay some debt. Or, they were die-hard athletes that had just a little bit too much steroids shot up into them. They could have also been part of the mafia and were told to kill the first dude they felt necessary. Whatever the case, why would this even happen? He (most likely) didn’t deserve this, and he was doing VOLENTEER work. Ermergerd, what has this generation come to?

  2. I agree I don't see anything he did wrong. Heathers right what were they thinkimg there couldn't have possibaly been anything wrong to deserve that, unless he did something really bad to them awhile back, but even so they shouldn't have gone as far as they did.

  4. Is football really that serious? I mean come on this man is just trying to do his job. How can you get that mad at someone to kill them?
