Man Killed after fight at A's Angels game...

http://www.comcast.net/articles/sports-mlb/20090408/MLBFanDeath.040809/

A man has died from injuries incurred in a fight after the opening day game at Angels Stadium Monday night, according to a report from the Los Angeles Times.

The fight occurred at about 8:45 p.m., as the crowds were clearing the stadium after the Angels defeated the A's 3-0.

Witnesses say 27-year-old Brian Powers was fighting with a man when a third man joined the fight, according to the Anaheim Police Department. The third man reportedly approached Powers from behind, punching him in the head. Powers then fell and hit his head on a concrete step in a stairwell in the right-field pavilion.

Powers was pronounced brain dead around midnight Tuesday at UC Irvine Medical Center, according to Anaheim Police Sgt. Rick Martinez.

Police are looking for two male suspects, aged 25-30 and both with goatees. They're also reviewing security videos that may have captured the attack, but are still searching for more information about the fight that led to the death of the Buena Park, Calif., man. "We're asking the public's help to find out what the fight was about," Martinez said.

 

Wow, this is tragic, horrible and just wow all rolled into one.
