A coach who tried to defend a player during a Midnight Basketball Program in Long Beach is recovering after he was beaten by as many as 15 gang members.

The 37-year-old coach says he suffered broken bones in his face and hands, had bruised ribs and needed stitches after Thursday night's attack at a park gym. No arrests were made.

The coach told the Long Beach Press-Telegram that he saw several gang members attack one of the boys who was playing at the gym under the city-sponsored recreation program. The coach says he shouted at the gang members, who turned on him, and more came running in as he defended himself.

Police are investigating.

They dont believe in one on one. They like to get you on the ground and then each and every one of them likes to kick you. Basically, cowards.

I was thinking along that line too. If the city/state/county/whatever recreational department is going to sponsor a midnight anything, shouldn't security be included in the budget?

I thought they were locally funded too until I googled it
