LOS ANGELES -- (KTLA) -- A post-game fight at a Dodger Stadium parking lot that left a victim hospitalized in criticalcondition involved a mother and the son, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said Tuesday.
Beck addressed the Oct. 9 altercation, which occurred after Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the New York Mets, outside a Police Commission meeting.
“We believe that it is a son and a mother who are responsible for this assault. We believe that the weapon used was hands and feet,” Beck said.
Detectives have not yet been able to interview the victim, and Beck repeatedly cited that when declining to provide details about the incident, including the victim's age and the team affiliation of those involved.
In a news release issued early Tuesday evening, LAPD described the perpetrators: white man of medium height and weight, between 25 and 30 years old; and white woman about 5 feet 3 inches tall, between 40 and 50 years old. The man had light-colored hair and the woman had blond hair, the release stated.
An argument broke out between fans in Parking Lot L about 10:30 p.m., according to police.
“The argument escalated into an assault (hands and feet only) on a victim by two suspects,” the LAPD release stated.
The victim was hospitalized in critical condition, and was still in the hospital and stable Tuesday, police said.
