A FAN WAS REPORTEDLY SHOT IN THE HEAD JUST OUTSIDE OF THE COWBOYS-PATRIOTS GAME

October 11, 2015

Arlington, TX police are reporting that a man in his early 40s was shot in the head after a skirmish in the parking lot of the Cowboys' AT&T stadium, according to Complex Sports and The Dallas Morning News. The man is currently in critical condition.

Police received reports of a fight, only to roll up and hear a single gunshot, they discovered a man with life-threatening injuries on the ground, who was transported to a nearby hospital shortly after. According to police reports, the alleged shooter injured himself while fleeing the scene. The suspect, a male, will be charged with aggravated assault and placed in jail after receiving hospital treatment himself.

Police are still investigating what caused the incident, but according to Fort Worth Star-Telegram beat reporter Clarence Hill, eyewitnesses accounts described a truly distressing scene, in which bystanders were encouraging the suspect to shoot the victim in the head.

Unsurprisingly, police told the Morning News that both parties "might have been tailgating for awhile."

Darwinism?

I mean, not for nothing, but if you're stupid enough to get into a physical altercation as an adult, over a sports team, then yeah.... night night.

What if somebody starts beating on you with his fists?

Just stand there?

What makes shooting someone in the head Agg Assault as opposed to attempted murder?

I think it probably turns on the fact that he didn't plot to kill someone... then when he actually didn't kill him, it can't be an attempt to murder, because that would require a plot.

It's actually agg assault with a deadly weapon that he's been charged with. If he had killed the guy, it would have probably been something like murder or criminally negligent homicide.

Gawd, how terrible. Apparently he was trying to break up the fight, too. And he had a fiancee who is expecting.
