FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. — Buffalo Bills offensive line coach Aaron Kromer has pleaded not guilty to a charge that he punched a boy in the face for using his beach chairs in Florida.
Walton County court records show that Kromer filed a written plea of not guilty Wednesday to a misdemeanour battery charge. The sheriff’s office says Kromer was arrested earlier this month after confronting two boys, pushing one to the ground and punching him.
An arrest report says the boy told deputies that Kromer threatened to kill his family if he reported the incident.
Kromer is charged with battery that caused bodily harm.
He joined the Bills in January after being fired from the Chicago Bears. He was placed on paid leave shortly after his arrest.
