Fall Leads To Serious Injury At Shea Stadium

NEW YORK (AP) ― Firefighters say a person has been seriously hurt in a fall at Shea Stadium during a New York Mets game.

The Fire Department says the victim has been taken to a hospital unconscious after falling around 10 p.m. Saturday, as the Mets played the St. Louis Cardinals. Firefighters had no immediate details on the victim or where in the stadium he or she fell.

Mets security Vice President Rob Kasdon is referring calls to the New York Police Department, which has no immediate information on the incident.

The game has continued and is tied at 8 after 10 innings.

The fall came less than four months after a fan lost his balance on a Shea escalator and fell two stories to his death in a section below the left field stands.
