Fan Critically Injured During Fight Outside Dodger Stadium
The fight broke out around 10:30 p.m.in a parking lot after the Dodgers lost the opening game of the National League Division Series to the New York Mets, 3-1.
Los Angeles police are investigating a fight outside Dodger Stadium that left one person in critical condition on Friday night. It wasn’t clear whether those involved were fans of rival teams.
Stow’s family later sued the Dodgers and won.
The station quoted a tweet by a person described as a friend of the victim referring to a serious head injury, saying his friend had been hospitalized “with a missing piece of skull”. This particular case is reportedly being handled by LAPD’s elite robbery-homicide division, which means that local authorities are beginning to take situations like these extremely seriously.
A call to a Dodgers spokesman seeking comment wasn’t immediately returned Monday.
Four and a half years after San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow was brutally beaten outside of Dodger Stadium, another incident of violence towards a visiting fan has occurred in Chavez Ravine.
