Head cheerleading coach Elizabeth Appenzeller arrested on domestic violence, assault charges

A head cheerleading coach has been arrested on domestic violence and assault charges after she refused to get out of her boyfriend's truck after he broke up with her and kicked a responding police officer.

Elizabeth Hadley Appenzeller, 31, of Conway, who has been head coach at Coastal Carolina University since 2009, was charged with a number of charges including resisting arrest, assaulting a police officer and public intoxication.

Police were called to the scene by Appenzeller's boyfriend who said she was refusing to get out of the bed of his truck after he broke off their relationship.

According to the arrest report, the responding officer told the 31-year-old she would be arrested for trespassing if she did not leave the truck.

When she got out she became 'loud and boisterous and used profanity', according to the report.

Because of their proximity to a public ball field, officers grabbed her arm and try to escort her away but she pulled away and swore at them.

As they tried to place her under arrest she kicked one of the officers and tried to jerk free. They had to physically restrain her.

The Criminal Domestic Violence charge stems from the victim's allegation that she struck him in the face before police arrived.
