Kansas high school football players accused of hazing teammates

By Kevin Murphy KANSAS CITY, Missouri (Reuters) - Three Kansas high school football players accused of pressing a hot coat hanger to the stomachs of several freshmen players in a hazing incident some have called a branding have been charged with aggravated battery, a prosecutor said Wednesday. The students from Hutchinson, Kansas, twisted the hanger back and forth until it got hot enough to leave a burn mark on the skin, Reno County District Attorney Keith Schroeder said. Schroeder said the incident is being called "a branding" in the local news media and elsewhere, but said the students were not marked with a consistent symbol. Charges were filed Tuesday against the Kansas players, who are accused of hazing freshman football players last week as they were moved up to the varsity squad. via Health News Headlines - Yahoo!
