An enraged Wisconsin parent was cited for tripping a 9-year-old football player during a youth league game when he became \u201cupset over a play,\u201d as the child\u2019s coach declared it the \u201cmost cowardly act I\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n

Shocking footage captured the dad, who was supporting the Milwaukee Colts, taking matters into his own hands when he made the drastic intervention against the Case Eagles in Racine, Wisc., on Saturday, CBS58 reported.<\/p>\n

The Eagles football player, wearing No. 88, was rushing to score a touchdown when the rogue adult extended his left leg and tripped the athlete. <\/p>\n

The boy and adult both tumbled to the ground as officials halted the game\u2019s play. <\/p>\n

Channing Schultz, the Eagles head coach, said the boy was okay but was infuriated by what unfolded on the field.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was filled with anger, it was disgusting,\u201d he told CBS.\u00a0\u201cIt was the most cowardly act I\u2019ve ever seen. For him to just do it with so much intent and he was committed. No words can fix that at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mount Pleasant police said the suspect, identified as a 41-year-old man, walked out onto the field when he \u201cbecame upset over a play.\u201d <\/p>\n

He fled the field, but police issued a citation for disorderly conduct after he admitted to his actions during a traffic stop.<\/p>\n

Schultz was relieved the boy wasn\u2019t seriously hurt.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe way he kicked my little guy. His leg could\u2019ve broke. His shin could\u2019ve broke,\u201d the coach told WISN.<\/p>\n

Other parents who attended the game were left horrified at what happened.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is fear playing a game like that and with youth sports, it should be fun. It shouldn\u2019t be fearful at all,\u201d one woman told WISN.<\/p>\n

The man has been banned from attending games for the \u201cremainder of the season,\u201d an official for the Colts team confirmed to CBS, but Schultz called for a lifetime ban.<\/p>\n

Mount Pleasant police have not identified the suspect, which left social media users bewildered after they believed the penalty was lenient.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHe assaulted a child you should at least refer up charges to the DA for battery, attempted battery, reckless endangering safety. This is a weak charge, more should be done,\u201d one user wrote under the police\u2019s press release post. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s disgusting what this country is coming to. How do we expect anything better from children,\u201d another said.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cA grown man against a 9 year old?! The way that went down it\u2019s lucky the kid didn\u2019t have a spine injury! This guy needs assault charges filed and a permanent record!\u201d a third horrified viewer penned.<\/p>\n

A furious Facebook user said the parent \u201cneeds to pay the price\u201d for his actions.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is absolutely abhorrent, ridiculous and not OK,\u201d she raged. \u201cWe will find out who you are. You\u2019re a disgrace and embarrassment.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
