University announces initial punishment for Carson Briere for wheelchair incident

BY JOSH
Carson Briere has been caught up in a whirlwind over the last 24 hours. The 23-year-old made the horrible decision over the weekend of throwing a wheelchair down a flight of stairs at a local bar.

The wheelchair belonged to a female student who was on the premises. The wheelchair was severely damaged and needed to be replaced. Luckily a GoFundMe page which was organized was able to replace the unit.

Today Carson and his father, Flyers General Manager, Daniel Briere, both issued statements on the matter.

Now the University has announced their initial punishment for all parties involved.


AFTER CONDUCTING AN INITIAL INVESTIGATION INTO THE INCIDENTS DEPICTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA, THE MERCYHURST ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT HAS DETERMINED THAT THREE INDIVIDUALS IN THE VIDEO ARE STUDENT-ATHLETES. WE HAVE PLACED ALL THREE ON INTERIM SUSPENSION FROM THEIR ATHLETIC TEAMS PER SCHOOL POLICY, PENDING THE OUTCOME OF THE INVESTIGATIVE PROCESS.




Now Briere and his two teammates will have to defend themselves after being suspended indefinitely pending investigation.
