Charles Oakley: Beaten Up!

On the court, he was known as a tough rebounder, a fierce defender and a hardhitting enforcer.
But in a reversal of fortunes, Charles Oakley found himself on the receiving end of a beatdown, after an incident in a Las Vegas resort.

Oakley was a guest in the Aria Hotel-Casino's VIP pool area. After briefly leaving the pool area, security personnel refused to allow him back in. This resulted in a shouting match which led to oakley returning to his rooms.

Oakley then claims that the Aria's security personnel s "assaulted" him in a secluded area of the resort.

In his complaint, Oakley says that the officers wrestled him to the ground then punched and handcuffed him. Later, he was brought to the hospital with neck, back, head and wrist injuries.

Oakley was among several VIPs who have participating in Michael Jordan's Celebrity Invitational golf fundraiser presented by Aria. He is currently an assistant coach with the Charlotte Bobcats.

D-League Brawl Results In Suspensions!

This may be the D-League but the action is just as hot and the tempers are just as short.

Which is why PBA Commissioner Chito Salud found himself in the unenviable position of fining and suspending coaches Pido Jarencio (Max Super Bond Glue) and Luigi Trillo (Cebuana Lhuillier) as well as players Junjun Cabatu of Max Super Bond Glue and Ariel Mepana of Cebuana Lhuillier.

Cabatu and Mepana ignited the altercation and were fined P5,000 each while their coaches were fined P10,000 each for conduct unbecoming of a head coach.

Jarencio will miss the Sumos's game today Trillo will miss the Gems' game next Tuesday.
