School: Student improperly touched coach before scuffle

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — The president of a private high school in Maryland says a student athlete made improper physical contact with a football coach shortly before a scuffle that led to the coach's abrupt retirement.

School surveillance video shows the 17-year-old boy approaching John Ricca in the St. John's Catholic Preparatory School gymnasium and locking the seated coach in a bear hug from behind.
