The Associated Press is reporting that Buffalo Bills offensive line coach Aaron Kromer was arrested and released today. Authorities in Florida took the 48-year-old Kromer into custody at around 2 o'clock this morning. Walton County Sheriff's Office says Kromer and his son confronted three boys about their use of beach chairs while fishing near their home. Kromer grabbed the boys' fishing pole and threw it in the water before shoving one of the boys to the ground and punching him. The Sheriff's office says Kromer told the victim he'd kill his family if he reported him to the police. The Sheriff's office did not release the names or ages of the boys. The coach is being charged with battery that caused bodily harm.
Kromer came to the team in January after he was fired by the Chicago Bears.
The Bills have released a statement mentioning that they are aware of the report and that more facts in the case are being gathered.
