Scuffle leaves MU freshman QB with broken nose
In a scene that ended with three Missouri football players wearing handcuffs, freshman quarterback Tyler Gabbert suffered a broken nose early Saturday morning when he was punched by another patron at a downtown restaurant. Quarterbacks Blaine and Tyler Gabbert and linebacker Andrew Gachkar were handcuffed and questioned by Columbia police outside Gumby’s Pizza after they had exchanged words — and at least one damaging punch — with another group of unidentified men, according to a Columbia police report. Police arrived at the restaurant at 1:27 a.m. in response to a call about a disturbance and interviewed 12 different people at the scene, Columbia police spokeswoman Officer Jessie Haden said. No arrests were made.
