IC Norcom runner who is charged with assault after a viral baton incident

Lynchburg, va. – An athlete from the IC Norcom High School was charged after a route baton left another runner with a concussion and a possibly broken skull, said Bethany Harrison, the lawyer of Commonwealth von Lynchburg.

It was confirmed that Alaila Everett is burdened due to a number of bodily harm and battery.

This incident occurred last week during a state championship meeting. A video of the event that has become viral shows that Kaelen Tucker is hit by Everett's Season Baton in the head. Everett claimed that this was an accident.

According to the senior of the Portsmouth High School, Viral Track Meet injury was an accident,

“She touched me to the point where I pumped my arm and the truncheon hit her arm,” said Everett. “I lose my balance – my whole body turns and then I pump my arms, so it was hit.”

The viral attention, which was absorbed by the track film material, has led to harassment and murder threats that are directed against Everett.

Before the indictment was announced, Portsmouth's NAACP made an explanation to defend Everett on Wednesday morning. The following is an extract from this statement:

Virginia Davis, an athletics officer in the USA with 16 years of experience as a referee, described the incident as tragic – but emphasized that the people involved are students.

“I think it is tragic. They pushed each other. Whether they think what they did was right or not, they are still students,” she said.

Everett has tried to reach Tucker since the race, but found that it was blocked on Instagram.

“After seeing the news on Wednesday, I thought: 'Oh, she thinks that was deliberate', so I tried to follow her,” said Everett. “I was blocked.”

Both athletes hope to promote from the incident and to promote understanding in the middle of the chaos that developed online.
