A fan was knocked unconscious during a post-game brawl outside Dodger Stadium after the Dodgers played the Twins on Tuesday night, video of the incident shows.
“They started pushing each other and then they got into a fight … and then a couple of seconds later (one guy) was knocked out on the floor, unconscious,” witness Jonathan Lopez told KTLA.
Video of the incident was posted by onlookers:

“I honestly don’t know what started it,” Lopez said. “You could tell some of them were drunk … and some of them were almost drunk.”
One witness told the New York Post that “there were up to seven people involved in the brawl, including two women.”
