I’ve seen fight videos after football games but things went way too far after the Dallas Cowboys vs. New England Patriots game on Sunday. A football fan shot a man outside a rowdy Dallas Cowboys tailgate party outside AT&T Stadium after onlookers encouraged the attack, according to a report.
via NYDN:
A big fight brought cops to what police believe was the drunken remnants of the night’s tailgating, an hour and a half after the Cowboys’ 30-6 blowout loss against the New England Patriots.
A male victim in his early 40s was found with a gunshot wound to his head. Paramedics airlifted the victim to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The alleged assailant was injured after tripping over a retaining wall during his attempted escape, authorities added.
The suspect allegedly held a gun to the victim’s head as a crowd egged him on to open fire, witnesses told a Star-Telegramreporter.
“I didn’t think he was going to pull the trigger,” Lester Peters told the Star-Telegram.
Mob mentality is insane; for people to egg on the shooter to kill his victim rather than encourage him not to is crazy. Last I read the victim is in critical condition. Prayers up for him.
