49ers fan in coma after beating outside SoFi Stadium

An ugly incident took place in the parking lot outside SoFi Stadium at Sunday’s NFC Championship Game, leaving a 49ers fan in a coma and police searching for the person responsible.

Daniel Luna, a restaurant owner from Oakland who traveled to the game to cheer on the 49ers against the Rams, is hospitalized at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center after paramedics found him having been beaten and severely injured in the parking lot, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Police say they have no suspects in the beating but are scouring security video to attempt to identify the people involved.

The 49ers released a statement expressing concern for Luna, a lifelong Bay Area resident and 49ers fan.

What happened to Daniel Luna is reprehensible, and we strongly condemn all violence,” the team said to CBS LA. “We know local authorities are conducting a full investigation and we’re here to support them however we can. Our thoughts and prayers go to Mr. Luna, his family, friends, and the medical team providing him care.”

Luna was wearing a 49ers jersey at the game, and he was there alone after friends he had been planning to attend with had to cancel.

An arrest has been made in an attack that left a 49ers fan seriously injured outside SoFi Stadium at the NFC Championship Game.

Police arrested Bryan Alexis Cifuentes-Rossell on a felony charge of assault by a means to produce great bodily injury, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Authorities indicated that the injuries to 40-year-old Daniel Luna stemmed from a brief fight between Luna, who was wearing a 49ers jersey, and Cifuentes-Rossell, who was dressed in Rams gear. Security video has not been made public, but authorities said it shows Luna and Cifuentes-Rossell exchanging shoves, followed by Cifuentes-Rossell punching Luna, and Luna falling and hitting the back of his head on the pavement.

Luna’s condition has neither improved nor deteriorated in the days since he was hospitalized, the mayor of Inglewood said in announcing the charges against Cifuentes-Rossell.

Yeah 9ers, Raiders and Falcons fans seem to be in a lot of fights.

I think a few years ago there was a 9ers/Falcons playoff game and the NFL hired extra security for fear of post game stabbings.
