Mom recounts brutal assault on son for not removing hat during national anthem
By Kent Luetzen / KPAX August 6, 2019
Within minutes of dropping her son off, Megan Keeler says she received a phone call stating her son was on his way to the hospital. (MTN News photo)
Witnesses told deputies the suspect grabbed, picked up and slammed the boy on the ground apparently because he did not remove his hat during the national anthem.
Within minutes after dropping her son off at the fairgrounds, Megan Keeler says she received a phone call stating her son was on his way to the hospital.
Dude come up and grabbed him by his neck, picked him up and threw him to the ground head first, Keeler told MTN News.
The suspect, Curt Brockway, is accused of assaulting the 13-year-old.
The state requested that Brockways bond be set to $100,000, but a judge ruled that Brockway can be released on his own recognizance.
This is not Brockways first run in with police. MTN News obtained court documents from a 2010 incident where he plead guilty to an assault with a weapon charge.

(56,828 posts)9. You know, there is this thing called "words" that you can use
you know, normally if you're offended by the actions of a 13 year old, you use your words to tell them why not taking their hat off is disrespectful. You don't f-ing slam their head into the ground.
