Bills suspend coach Aaron Kromer for six games
Before the case could go any further, Florida assistant state attorney Bobby Elmore announced the charges against Kromer had been dropped completely, per Rodak. The alleged victims told police that Kromer threw their fishing poles into the water, pushed one of the boys to the ground and punched him in the face.
Buffalo Bills offensive line coach Aaron Kromer avoided a criminal charge after allegations he attached a boy in Florida, but he will still miss time on the field.
Kromer allegedly struck a teenage boy in a dispute over the use of beach chairs, and was charged with misdemeanor battery. Zachery Kromer was accused of placing his hands on another boy during the altercation.
His suspension begins September 7 and wil end after the Bills-Bengals game on October 18.
“Over the past several weeks the Bills organization has gathered information regarding the incident involving Offensive Line Coach Aaron Kromer”, Bills president Russ Brandon said in a statement. He was in the middle of a Chicago Bears controversy when he was the team’s offensive coordinator, when it was found out that he was the source of an anonymous leak for a report that the Bears had “buyer’s remorse” about quarterback Jay Cutler. Kromer is eligible to return for the team’s Week 7 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars that will be played in London. In their statement Sunday, the Bills said they “look forward to Coach Kromer rejoining the Bills organization at Training Camp”.
