The child was not injured, but Fazio was promptly fired and arrested.

 “[We] do not condone the recent behavior displayed by our former assistant coach,” the Bulls said in a statement. “The behavior of the individual is not representative of the sentiments, moral compass, or values of the entirety of the program.”

Fazio was charged with second-degree breach of peace, disorderly conduct and risk of injury to a child.

He posted a $20,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court Oct. 2.
