Football could be banned indefinitely at crisis-hit Sayreville War Memorial High School as it emerges the horrific hazing ritual currently under investigation may not have been the first. Seven students aged 15 to 17 have been charged with sex crimes after allegedly pinning down new players, anally penetrating them with a finger, then sticking it in the boys' mouths. The scandal has sparked outrage across New Jersey, with thousands gathering tonight outside the school calling for more to be done to tackle bullying and assault. But tonight Sayreville Schools Superintendent Richard Labbe revealed information gathered by the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Officer suggests harassment, intimidation and bullying may have taken place before this year in the Bombers' locker room.
