STOCKTON, Calif. -- A rock was thrown through the front window at the home of Pete Morelli, an NFL referee who made an incorrect call in last Sunday's playoff game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Indianapolis Colts.

Morelli also is a high school principal, and police said Friday it was unclear whether the incident was related to his school job or his role as a referee.

Morelli, who has been an NFL official for nine years, overturned on replay an interception by Pittsburgh's Troy Polamalu. The league said Monday that Morelli should have let the call on the field stand.

Police said they have no suspects.

"There are no leads to follow up on," said Stockton police spokesman Pete Smith. "We don't have any idea of the motivating factor."

The grapefruit-sized rock was thrown through the window of Morelli's home on Monday night, Smith said. Neither Morelli nor his wife, who also was home at the time, was injured.

Just because I posted something doesn't mean I didn't see it before. I was waiting for you to post it but you didn't, so I took matters into my own hands.
