SALT LAKE CITY — A heated soccer game between two rival Salt Lake high schools that ended in a brawl in the parking lot, according to police, now has a player looking at a possible sentence of five years to life in prison if convicted.
On April 30, a soccer match at East High School, 840 S. 1300 East, between the varsity teams of East and West High School became heated, according to Salt Lake City police. So much so, that the referee ended the game 10 minutes early due to red cards and other ongoing problems, police said.
After the game, an East High player was walking to his car with the team manager, when according to police, a West High player got out of his car and attacked the East players. Others then joined in.
Arturo Martin-Pimentel, 18, of Taylorsville, and at least five other people assaulted the team manager, who “lost consciousness during the assault and required emergency medical treatment for his injuries,” according to charging documents.
Because the attack was carried out with two or more people, those charged are subject to enhanced penalties, according to court records.
Martin-Pimentel was charged Thursday in 3rd District Court with aggravated assault, a first-degree felony. A $150,000 warrant was issued for his arrest.
Charging documents do not say the ages of the others who allegedly participated in the fight.
