A doctor by the name of Samuel G. Caruthers has recently been released from custody after striking a twelve-year-old with his own hands and ski pole after losing his cool @MountainCreek ski resort in New Jersey reports NJ.com. The incident occurred on Sunday when the child in question tumbled into the anesthesiologist from Mountain Lakes, NJ and his son. After that Caruthers seems to have flown into a “ski rage” and according to NJ.com, he “punched the boy in the mouth and struck him with the end of a ski pole.”
