High school track runner gets attacked with a baton in the middle of a relay at the VSHL Class 3 State Indoor Championships.

Kaelen Tucker was on the second leg of the 4x200m relay at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA, when she got smacked in the head.

Tucker suffered a concussion and a potential skull fracture.

“When we got to the curve she kept bumping me in my arm and when we got off the curve I finally passed her and that was when she hit me with the baton,” Tucker said.


The high school runner who is accused of attacking another runner in the head with a baton, says it was an accident and wants people to think about her feelings.

Alaila Everett says the video is just one big misunderstanding.
Everett claims the camera angle made the strike look intentional but she claims her baton just got stuck.
