Ohio student sues coaches for allegedly forcing him to eat pizza against religion

Student says his former coaches, who knew he didn't consume pork products, forced him to eat pizza with pepperoni residue

An Ohio high school student has filed a lawsuit against his former school and sports coaches after they forced him to eat a pepperoni pizza against his religion.

The 17-year old student, known in court documents as KW or Junior, argues that his former coaches, who knew that he was a member of the Hebrew-Israelite faith and did not consume pork products, forced him to eat a whole pepperoni pizza as a consequence of missing a workout last May.
