Last week, a wild situation took place during Monday night’s NFL game between the Los Angeles Rams and the San Francisco 49ers when a spectator ran onto the field with pink flares in a form of protest. When security was unable to apprehend the protester quickly, Rams players Takkarist McKinley and Bobby Wagner took matters into their own hands by tackling the protester, and it looks like they might have caused a serious injury.
The protester, identified as Alexander Taylor, filed a police report after the incident with his spokesperson alleging “blatant assault” by Wagner. The police report reveals that Taylor suffered some serious injuries as a result of the incident, including a burn on his arm and a concussion.
“Mr. Taylor had a headache, concussion without loss of consciousness, and a burn on his inner right bicep,” cops said in the report, according to TMZ Sports.
The burn on his arm is likely due to the pink flare Taylor carried onto the field. The concussion, meanwhile, is due to Wagner’s tackle.
Wagner revealed after the game that he was simply helping out security by tackling the protester.
“I just saw somebody running on the field, and he looked like he wasn’t supposed to be on the field,” Wagner said after the game. “I saw security was having a little problem, so I helped him out.”
The police are continuing to investigate the incident.
The jerk got hurt in the commission of a crime he perpetrated.
This ain’t going anywhere..............
His mistake wasn’t trying it at Ford Field, the Lions can’t tackle anybody.
I bet you did not sleep in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
When you get injured in the midst of commiting a crime you have a very poor case.
Nailed the correct and effective defense here.
Look for a public statement to that effect soon.
Dude had ignited a substantial incindiary device was an immeninent threat to all on the field heading toward the players.
Boom. Threat over.
ouch. so true. he could have gone up to the mezzanine, got himself a hotdog and walked back down to the field to continue

"The previous call for Targeting is under review."
The perp was a potential suicide bomber. Could have had chemical weapons. Clearly a case of self defense.
Run onto a football field during a live game, you take your chances.
That's all? Put him back in the game.
That's what the Dolphins would do.
That was harsh! But probably true.
And?

It takes 3 concussions to get any sympathy apparently.
God bless Texas.
The old “person that gets injured while breaking the law” civil lawsuit claim.
Did he hire Benjamin Crump already?

Probably angling toward an out of court settlement without any trial.
Yep, I called that the day it happened. I work injury claims, the vast majority are inflated and a good number are complete BS.
