Pittsburgh Pirates Employee Suspended Over Role In Wild Fistfight With Fan

A Pittsburgh Pirates recreation day worker has been suspended by the crew … after he was seen on video getting concerned in a fully insane fistfight with a fan at PNC Park.

The violent scrum occurred on Sunday — because the Buccos had been taking up the Padres.

According to CBS, the altercation went down after a Pirates worker — who was sporting a white polo and tan pants — tried to drag two males away from a tiff that they had been having with a close-by concession employee.

You possibly can see within the video from the scene — the Pittsburgh official and one of many males obtained nose-to-nose with each other … earlier than fists began flying.

The Pirates supporter ate a bevy of punches … and wanted a second to get well. He then took off his hat, glasses and jacket, seemingly in an effort to get a extra honest struggle going.

Folks then intervened to attempt to break issues up … however as soon as the fan began spitting blood on the employee — all hell broke free once more.

Take a look at the footage, the Pirates worker ripped off his belt and smacked the person with it repeatedly.

Mercifully, cooler heads finally prevailed … and police confirmed as much as take a report.

The Pirates known as their employee’s conduct “completely unacceptable” in a press release they launched on Monday … writing, “he was instantly suspended.”

“This incident is presently beneath additional investigation,” they added.
