He then tackled the boy and pinned him to the ground. The child broke free and ran to a neighbor's house, where he called police.The boy did not suffer any serious injuries.In 2005, Calloni pleaded guilty to domestic assault, endangering the welfare of a child and felonious restraint. He was sentenced to five years of probation in that case.
