During a junior varsity game between Kalamazoo Central and Lakeshore, a player from Kalamazoo Central was filmed slamming the entire weight of his body into Colton Mims.
The Michigan high school athlete’s spine was fractured when the boy twice his size leaped up and flattened him.
The moment went down after a play was finished when the larger kid decided he was going to do something disgusting to hurt his opponent. Footage taken by fans in the stands shows a Lakeshore player tackling the 15-year-old Kalamazoo Central player as the two teams tussled.
Following the body slam, Colton was carted off the field and taken to the hospital.
The 15-year-old was treated for two fractures in his spine and placed on muscle relaxers and has since been released to his mother, Courtney Mims.
