The son of Philadelphia Flyers interim general manager Daniel Breyer was accused Tuesday of throwing a wheelchair belonging to a disabled student down the stairs of a bar.
Surveillance footage of the incident appeared to show Mercyhurst University student-athlete Carson Breyer walking up a flight of stairs and talking to another man. He then appeared to take a wheelchair that was at the top of the stairs and roll it down before returning to the bar.
