SPRINGDALE, Pa. -- A woman said borough police beat her teenage sons after arresting them at the Springdale-Wilkinsburg high school football game Friday night.

The boys, ages 14 and 16, were taken into custody after resisting attempts to eject them from Veterans Memorial Field for smoking, authorities said. They were released from Shuman Juvenile Detention Center late Monday morning.

At a rally outside the Springdale police station Sunday, the teens' mother, Jacqueline Jones, said her children had bruises on them and claimed police yelled racial epithets during the arrest.

"I believe it was Chief (Joe) Naviglia, because he was screaming fairly loud, "I'm sick of you n***** kids coming to my town and ruining it and ruining virtually everything that goes on here,'" Jones said.

The woman said Naviglia was verbally abusive to her at the station.

"I said, 'I'm the boys' mother. Why do you have them and why was I not notified?'" Jones said. "He was sitting at a small desk and he said, 'Get her out of here. You're not coming in here. Go home, goodbye.'"

When police did allow Jones to see her boys, she said they were covered with bruises, and her 16-year-old told her that Naviglia's brother, Officer Mike Naviglia, had kissed him on the mouth and asked him, "Does that taste like racism?"

"He (Officer Naviglia) said, 'I kissed him to show him that I wasn't prejudiced,' and I said, 'You have no business kissing my son. Don't kiss him,'" Jones said.

Chief Naviglia denied Jones' claims Monday morning.

"There are some strong allegations ... if people know me, they know that's not me," he said.

The chief referred questions about the confrontation to borough Solicitor Mike McCarthy, who said an internal investigation will be conducted, even though no formal complaint has been filed.

Jones said she will take her allegations to the FBI and the American Civil Liberties Union.
