Quote from Oct. 20 Channel 11 text: "Apparently, the coach's husband tried to stop Burke from yelling at his wife, and that's when the two men got into an argument in the stands. The police report states that the victim pushed Burke, and then Burke pulled a handgun and pointed it at the victim's head."
I've been out of town all week and am just now catching up to bits and pieces of this incident, but it appears the subject line of this thread would be more accurate if stating "Soccer dad pulls gun on coach's husband."
Also, I question if the incident actually happened "in the stands". Most of the soccer fields I've seen - particularly with kids of that age level - had no "stands" or "bleachers", but simply lots of observers standing along the sidelines ... Much missing here for "totality of the circumstances" to be evaluated ...

I don't think so. IIRC (from an incident last spring) about the worst the husband might get on this (on criminal side anyway) could be $500 fine. An assault conviction of the husband though, would certainly not hurt the CHL guy's position.
