Conn. mom accused of hassling son's hockey opponent

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. -- Bridgeport police have accused a Trumbull woman of retaliating against a 10-year-old boy who bumped her son during a youth hockey game over the weekend.

Police have charged 47-year-old Madeline Fromageot for the incident that allegedly occurred Saturday at the Wonderland of Ice.

Police say the woman grabbed the boy's helmeted head and banged it against the Plexiglas partition around the rink until the player's mother interceded.

Fromageot is charged with breach of peace, but she strongly denies the allegations and insists she did not touch the other player.

Police say the incident took place during a hockey game between a team from Easton and the team on which Fromageot's 7-year-old son is a player.
