Maradona throws punches in scuffle
BUENOS AIRES, April 24: Diego Maradona threw some wild punches and some insults at a crush of local television reporters Wednesday, who crowded him as he left a courthouse following an arbitration hearing with his former manager.
Maradona and Guillermo Coppola, who have been enmeshed in a legal dispute over past business dealings, were summoned to appear at a hearing. But chaos ensued when Maradona left and local photographers and journalists chased him.
