A disabled woman whose wheelchair was pushed down a flight of stairs by Mercyhurst University men’s hockey center Carson Briere blasted his “insincere” apology after the incident.
Footage of the incident shows Briere, wearing a white hat, taking a seat in the chair in a hallway at the top of a stairwell before cruelly shoving it down the stairs and walking back into the crowded bar.The owner of the chair, who identified herself on social media as “Sydney,” bashed Briere in a series of tweets Wednesday and said she will donate most of the $8,000 raised on GoFundMe for a new wheelchair after hers was damaged.
Sydney said in a separate tweet that she does not blame the bar, and said security made Briere apologize before they kicked him out. But she claimed the college hockey player was “insincere” and he even asked the bouncer, “Do I still have to go?” after apologizing.“They’ve shown their true colors. Those being that they’re entitled, spoiled, ignorant, douchecanoes. I don’t wanna ruin their lives but they’ve clearly only gotten a slap on the wrist their whole lives.
On Wednesday, the school’s athletic department said Briere, as well as two other student-athletes in the video, were placed on interim suspension from their respective teams.“I am deeply sorry for my behavior on Saturday. There is no excuse for my actions, and I will do whatever I can to make up for this serious lack of judgment.”
Carson, a Philadelphia native, played 30 games for the Lakers in the 2022-23 season — totaling five goals and eight assists. He was dismissed from the men’s hockey team at Arizona State as a freshman in 2019 for what the program said was a violation of team rules. His father, Daniel Briere, played 17 seasons in the NHL, including six with the Flyers and a Stanley Cup appearance with Philadelphia in 2010.
