5 coaches suspended at NJ high school amid hazing scandal

SAYREVILLE, N.J. (WPVI) -- Five football coaches at a New Jersey high school embroiled in a hazing scandal, have been suspended indefinitely.

The coaches, including head coach George Najjar, are also tenured teachers at Sayerville War Memorial High School.

A source says they are barred from teaching or coaching, but are being paid during an internal investigation.

Seven teen players face sex abuse charges for crimes against younger teammates.

The suspensions are expected to be formalized during a school board meeting on Tuesday night.
