ERIE, Pa. (CBS) -- Carson Briere, the son of Philadelphia Flyers interim general manager Danny Briere, has been charged in connection with pushing a disabled woman's wheelchair down the steps of a bar in Erie.

Carson Briere, who plays hockey at Mercryhurst University in Erie, was charged with criminal mischief, disorderly conduct and related offenses.

Patrick Carrozzi, another Mercryhurst student that plays on the men's lacrosse team, was also hit with the same offenses in connection with the incident."


snip-"Danny Briere released a statement about the incident involving his son, "I was shocked to see Carson's actions in the video that was shared on social media yesterday. They are inexcusable and run completely counter to our family's values on treating people with respect. Carson is very sorry and accepts full responsibility for his behavior."

More at source.

Please note Carson Briere is 23, but his daddy is apologizing for him.

Fuck Carson

There was some scuttlebutt making the rounds that the chair was a "prop" (supposedly to remind patrons not to drink and drive), and people were defending this arrogant little sh*t. My response was that he didn't know that one way or the other, now did he ? He's been tossed from one university to another because of his reprehensible behavior -- read privileged, entitled, pampered white-boy son of big name NHLer -- and he will f*ck up again because he has learned nothing here and will repeat his shameless behavior.

He didn't know that the camera was there . . .

Three misdemeanor charges were filed Monday against the son of Philadelphia Flyers interim general manager Danny Briere after a video posted on social media showed him and another Mercyhurst University athlete pushing an unoccupied wheelchair down a staircase.

Police in Erie, Pennsylvania, filed charges of criminal mischief, criminal conspiracy to commit mischief and disorderly conduct against Carson Briere, who completed his third hockey season at Mercyhurst. Patrick Carrozzi, listed as a senior member of the school’s lacrosse team, faces the same three charges, according to documents filed with District Judge Sue Mack.

The two are scheduled to appear in court on May 22.

Briere and Carrozzi are seen on a surveillance video at the top of a staircase of a local bar, where they push the wheelchair down the steps on March 11. Police say their actions posed a potential danger to anyone coming up the stairs, while also creating a hazardous condition by blocking the staircase.

Carson Briere was dismissed from the ASU hockey team for violation of rules. He got a second chance bc of nepotism. It's obvious he's learned nothing and continues to be blinded by his privilege. twitter.com/juliazukowski/…

Carson Briere, son of current Flyers interim GM Daniel Briere, pushes a vacant wheelchair down a set of stairs.

This is not only disgusting, but disturbing as well.

We need to be better than this… the replies and video itself shows that.

Stop making excuses for entitlement. twitter.com/juliazukowski/…
