A seven-year-old Tawainese boy who was repeatedly thrown to the floor during judo class died Tuesday. The boy had complained of a bad headache but the coach continued throwing him to the floor until he turned pale and became unresponsive. The severe haemorrhages prompted doctors to perform craniotomy and after the operation, declared that Huang was in a “brain dead state.” Citing Huang’s family, local media reported that the boy was thrown about 27 times. Prosecutors said his head repeatedly hit the floor but did not specify how many times. We did not use inappropriate force and had no idea that he sustained grave injuries,” according to the prosecutors.
