What a sick action! A brutal fan attack before the NHL duel between the New York Rangers and the Tampa Bay Lightning shocked the USA.
A supporter of the host Rangers suddenly punches a supporter of the guests in the face. The hard-hit person immediately collapses and remains motionless.
Panic at Legendary Madison Square Garden! After a brutal attack by a Rangers fan, a Lightning supporter is left on the ground. Followers of both camps take care of the man immediately. They scream: He’s dead! Luckily it’s not that bad. The police give the all-clear. The man is okay. Nothing is known about the severity of the injury.
A video of this incredible action is shared on Twitter. The comments say that the victim was said to have been unconscious for up to five minutes.
At least we know a little bit about the reasons why. The 29-year-old attacker and the victim are said to have fought a war of words before the brutal action. With devastating consequences for both. The victim is knocked out, the perpetrator gets a charge of grievous bodily harm and a lifetime ban from Madison Square Garden.
