HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) - A young Cincinnati Bengals fan has been penalized for clipping.
Dustin Reader got the NFL team's stripes and "B" insignia cut into his hair as a tribute to the team's good season. When he showed up to school in the southwest Ohio city of Hamilton on Monday, officials put the eighth-grader into in-school suspension. The school says its code of conduct prohibits extreme and distracting hairstyles. Reader's parents and barber say they don't understand why the haircut is out of bounds. His father says his son just wants to show pride in the 6-2 Bengals. School officials say he will continue to do his studies away from other students until the hair grows back or he changes the style. |
