LOS ANGELES — A dispute over a cap triggered a violent brawl in the stands at Angel Stadium on Wednesday night during a Freeway Series game between the Angels and Dodgers.
Two 26-year-old men from Tustin, Calif., were arrested, the Anaheim Police Department said. The primary attacker was charged with felony assault and the other man with misdemeanor assault.
A portion of the brawl was recorded on video and posted on social media. A fan wearing a Mike Trout jersey and sitting in a seat was punched and kicked in the head from one row above him by a man wearing a Dodgers jersey. The video had 350,000 views on X as of early Friday morning.
A police spokesperson said the fight started because someone was accused of stealing a hat. The victim declined to be taken to a hospital by stadium personnel.
