NC Dinos Coaches Get Into Fistfight While Drinking, Leading to Hospitalization... Police Investigation Underway

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Ju Cheol-in] Two coaches of the professional baseball team NC Dinos are under police investigation after getting into a fistfight during a drinking party.

According to a compilation of Asia Economy reports on the 3rd, it was understood that between 3 and 4 a.m. that day, Coach A of the NC Dinos' first team and Coach B, who belongs to the same team, got into an argument while drinking at a pub in Suseong-gu, Daegu.

As a result, Coach A, who is a second team coach of NC Dinos, hit Coach B, who is a first team coach. A and B are senior and junior, with A being older than B.

Currently, B is hospitalized in a hospital in Daegu. It has been confirmed that A is waiting to undergo police investigation.

A police official said, "Since A was heavily intoxicated, the investigation is expected to be possible only in the afternoon," and added, "We plan to investigate the exact circumstances regarding both B and A."

The NC team has been staying in Daegu since the 3rd for a three-game away series against the Daegu Samsung Lions. Last year, NC also caused controversy when four players were disciplined for violating quarantine guidelines.

NC is currently at the bottom of the standings this season with 8 wins, 18 losses, and a winning percentage of 0.308.
