A lawsuit has been filed against the Pittsburgh Pirates stemming from a fight last year between a fan and a game day employee.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last spring, video showed the fan and the employee<\/a>\u00a0fighting during a game at PNC Park. That fan has now sued the Pirates and the employee.<\/p>\n The lawsuit, filed in Allegheny County on behalf of Patrick Egan, alleges that during the fight, Egan suffered a concussion and facial injuries including a chipped tooth, a bloody lip and more.<\/p>\n The incident began when Egan and his friend were accused of harassing a woman who worked at a concession stand. The game day employee, identified in the lawsuit as Raymond Stroud III, intervened in the situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n In the lawsuit, Egan states that he was not involved in the altercation with the woman and that he did not harass her.\u00a0<\/p>\n Bystanders and other employees tried to break up the fight, but within moments, Egan was seen spitting on Stroud. He then took off his belt and started hitting Egan.<\/p>\n Following the fight, the Pirates said Stroud’s behavior was “entirely unacceptable” and he was immediately suspended.\u00a0No charges were filed<\/a> in the wake of the fight, police said last year.<\/p>\n Egan is seeking damages for assault, battery, negligence, and invasion of privacy.\u00a0<\/p>\n The suit also alleges that the Pirates failed to release security surveillance video of the incident that would have showed that Egan did not harass the concession worker.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Pirates told CBS News Pittsburgh it doesn’t comment on pending litigation.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n More from CBS News\n <\/p>\n
