11 High School Lacrosse Players Face Charges in Hazing of Teammates
""This goes way, way beyond hazing... I cannot adequately express to this community the level of stupidity and lack of judgment involved in this case.""
""A driver pretended to be lost, and another group of students emerged from the woods dressed in dark clothing and brandishing at least one handgun and one knife.""
Eleven lacrosse players in Syracuse, NY, surrendered after a hazing incident that involved weapons, as described by Onondaga County's district attorney, William J. Fitzpatrick. He characterized the act as extreme, detailing an event where older players coercively took younger teammates to a remote area, tied one victim, and used firearms and knives overall. Fitzpatrick described the players' actions as deeply concerning, labeling them as lacking judgment, and announced that the involved players would face unlawful imprisonment charges, a misdemeanor. After the incident came to light and videos surfaced, the perpetrators were given an ultimatum to surrender.
