Hispanics Suspected in Savage Beating of Giants Fan at Dodgers' Opening Day

Oh, but you can't say "savage."

But as the Los Angeles Times reports:

Brian Stow, 42, a Santa Cruz paramedic, a father of two and a Giants fan, was walking through the Dodger Stadium parking lot with two friends after the Dodgers' 2-1 victory over San Francisco. Stow was wearing Giants apparel, police said, and two young men began taunting him. One of the assailants then cursed the Giants and blindsided Stow with blows to the back and head, police said.

The two assailants repeatedly kicked and punched Stow while he was on the ground. Stow's friends attempted to help, and were also punched and kicked before the attackers fled in a car driven by a woman. Police said it appears there was also a 10-year-old boy in the car.

Stow has a brain injury and is in a medically induced coma at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center. He remained in critical condition on Monday.

Part of Stow's skull has been removed to reduce the pressure on his brain, said Rebecca Mackowiak, his colleague at a paramedic service. Even if he recovers physically, she said, "he won't be the same person again."

The attack has helped add to Dodger Stadium's reputation as the home to what former major league player Dustan Mohr a few years ago told a reporter might be "the worst crowd" in baseball.

A ten year-old was driving the getaway car, naturally. Don't be surprised if we find out that the suspects are MS-13 operatives.
