There’s no doubt that sports fans are some of the most passionate people out there. Sometimes their passions lead them to commit crimes, such as the tragic event that occurred following a San Francisco Giants game recently.

According to an article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the man, along with his father and brother, attended a Giants/Dodgers game, but they left near the end to go out drinking. The 24-year-old got into an intense argument with another patron at a local bar. A fight ensued, which ended with a fatal stabbing.

Not all fights have fatal results, however, with the St. Louis Cardinals entering the playoffs, and the St. Louis Rams all geared up for another challenging NFL season, fights are bound to break out. If you or someone you know has been injured in a fight, it’s important to get the advice of a qualified St. Louis personal injury attorney.

The death of this young man is tragic, and his family deserves to be compensated for their loss. Fights such as this one might not always result in death, but they quite often do result in serious injuries. Medical expenses and lost wages are just a few of the burdens families must bear after these incidents. If you’ve been injured, your St. Louis personal injury attorney will fight to get you the compensation you deserve.
