Out of the WSB inbox, from Katie – she sent this around 5:30 but our mail system didn’t deliver it till a few hours afterward:

My husband was in Lincoln Park dropping off our son for soccer practice. I am e-mailing you to report that a soccer coach in Lincoln Park was just assaulted about 20 minutes ago. The coach was hit by a man who appeared to be intoxicated.

Another dad pulled the man off of the coach. Other parents, along with my husband, stepped in to break up the scuffle. Police have responded and are looking for the man, who appeared to be intoxicated.

The man was Caucasian with dark hair and beard, wearing dark clothing and carrying a dark blue backpack. The coach is okay and currently conducting practice.

Please be cautious at this time as the man is still wandering the area.

We’re checking with police, but Friday night is often difficult for reaching anyone for official comment except in case of something huge.
