VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Video showing a hockey coach apparently tripping players on a competing team in Canada has gone viral.

The teams were giving the traditional end-of-game hand slaps in Vancouver when witnesses said the coach tripped two teens from the opposing team.

One of those players suffered a broken wrist.

A mom to one of the players who shot video of the game called the incident "disgusting."

The league suspended the coach and is holding a discipline meeting.

Watch video of the incident below. (Note: Mobile or tablet users will need to go to a browser version of WCPO.com to watch the video.)
