COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A fight broke out at midfield after Michigan stunned No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on Saturday as Wolverines players attempted to plant their flag and were met by Buckeyes who confronted them. Police had to use pepper spray to break up the players, who threw punches and shoves in the melee that overshadowed the rivalry game. Ohio State police said in a statement “multiple officers representing Ohio and Michigan deployed pepper spray.” Ohio State police will investigate the fight, according to the statement. After the Ohio State players confronted their bitter rivals at midfield, defensive end Jack Sawyer grabbed the top of the Wolverines' flag and ripped it off the pole as the brawl moved toward the Michigan bench. Eventually, police officers rushed into the ugly scene. Ohio State coach Ryan Day said he understood the actions of his players. “There are some prideful guys on our team who weren't going to sit back and let that happen,” Day said. The two Ohio State players made available after the game brushed off questions about it. Michigan running back Kalel Mullings, who rushed for 116 yards and a touchdown, didn't like how the Buckeyes players involved themselves in the Wolverines' postgame celebration. He called it “classless.” “For such a great game, you hate to see stuff like that after the game," he said in an on-field interview with Fox Sports. “It’s just bad for the sport, bad for college football. But at the end of the day, you know some people got to — they got to learn how to lose, man. ... We had 60 minutes, we had four quarters, to do all that fighting.” Michigan coach Sherrone Moore said everybody needs to do better. “So much emotions on both sides," he said. "Rivalry games get heated, especially this one. It’s the biggest one in the country, so we got to handle that better.” Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

AP college football: https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-football-poll and https://apnews.com/hub/college-footballChildren may soon be better educated to prevent and report sexual abuse, after a local politician helped sponsor a new Ontario law that drew support from politicians of all stripes. The Ontario legislature approved Erin’s Law on Wednesday. It requires school boards to develop policies to engage students annually in the prevention and reporting of child sexual abuse, in a manner appropriate to their development. This includes age-appropriate techniques to recognize child sexual abuse and tell a trusted adult. The law mandates teacher and staff training, and provides resources for parents and guardians to recognize and address abuse. All three politicians who stood in the legislature to speak for the new law on its final vote are from this region, representing three political parties. Jess Dixon, Progressive Conservative MPP for Kitchener South—Hespeler, helped co-sponsor the law. She’s a former prosecutor who is drawing on her justice background to seek more support for children who are victimized. “Most victims of child sexual abuse know their abuser. And it can be very easy for (abusers) to manipulate them and scare them into silence,” Dixon said in an interview. Erin’s Law is about confronting that silence, she said, by helping children learn how to recognize and report an unsafe situation. Aislinn Clancy, Green MPP for Kitchener Centre, and Catherine Fife, New Democrat MPP for Waterloo, united in the legislature to speak in support of the new law alongside Dixon. “It’s always nice when we can agree on something,” Dixon said. Erin’s Law comes into effect when it receives royal assent. It is named after Erin Merryn, a survivor of child sexual abuse who has shared her story widely and whose advocacy has led 38 U.S. states to adopt legislation on prevention education. Reports to police of sexual crimes against children are soaring in Waterloo Region, from 83 crimes reported in 2013 to 541 crimes reported in 2023. This includes sexual violations against children as well as possessing, making or distributing child sexual abuse material.
Mumbai: The Maharashtra government has informed the Bombay High Court that it has established safe houses and special cells for interfaith and inter-caste couples across the state. A circular to this effect was issued on December 18, and the details will soon be available on the home department’s website and social media platforms. The statement was made during the hearing of a plea by a 23-year-old interfaith couple seeking safe accommodation in Mumbai due to threats from their families, who oppose their marriage. The couple had submitted a notice of marriage registration to the Sub-Registrar’s Office. A division bench of Justices Revati Mohite-Dere and Prithviraj Chavan directed the authorities to immediately provide the petitioners with a designated safe house. The court also instructed the local police to deploy an additional guard at the safe house to prevent any untoward incident. Further, the bench asked the police to decide within 48 hours on the man’s application for protection as he is set to begin a new job next week. Earlier, on December 10, the court had suggested converting rooms in state guest houses across districts into safe houses for couples facing threats over interfaith or inter-caste relationships, citing the presence of existing police security at such premises. The bench had also questioned the Social Justice and Home departments regarding compliance with the Supreme Court’s 2018 guidelines on ensuring protection for such couples. During the hearing on Thursday, the State’s advocate informed the court that special cells and safe houses have been set up for couples, regardless of marital status, as per the circular. The court accepted the government’s assurance to allocate a safe house to the petitioners that same evening. The matter is scheduled for further hearing on January 6."Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
