St. Louis youth football coach shot by parent angry over his son’s playing time: prosecutors

A St. Louis volunteer youth football coach was shot in the back Tuesday in front of his 9- and 10-year-old players by a father who was ticked off over his son’s playing time, prosecutors alleged.

Shaquille Latimore was wounded when Daryl Clemmons allegedly shot him four times after a weeks-long feud finally boiled over during a practice this week, the victim and authorities said.

“I didn’t see his gun until it was already too late,” Latimore told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “I ran, and he shot me in the back. I fell, and he shot me a couple more times.”

Clemmons, who used to coach the same team before Latimore came on board, allegedly taunted him while he was on the ground before other adults jumped in.

“After he shot me,” Latimore said, “he was like … ‘I told you I was going to pop your [expletive].’”

  1. Lets hope the shooter’s great-grandchildren come to visit him in prison occasionally. His actions were First degree and he should never be released.
