In a youth match played in Rosario, Argentina, on December 19, a mass brawl broke out, causing a spectator to pull a gun on a player, leading to terrifying moments.
In footage recorded by a fan on a mobile phone, two young players can be seen fighting with punches when a spectator from the stands enters the field and joins the brawl. At that moment, the armed assailant fired at one of the players in the middle of the fight from close range.
As the sound of gunfire was heard, players and spectators fled in panic, while a young player in a red jersey indicated that he was injured by holding his arm. While teammates helped the injured player off the field, the other player involved in the brawl fled the scene.
The armed assailant, who was difficult to calm down by a young woman, raised his weapon and pointed it in the opposite direction. It is still unknown whether the assailant fired randomly or targeted a specific player.
The field owner stated to the local press, "Both teams regularly use the field, but we have never seen the armed man before. We will overcome this incident." The police have launched an investigation into the incident.
Last month, another violent incident occurred in Rosario, where Andres Bracamonte, the leader of the Rosario Central fan group, was killed by a motorcycle assailant near the stadium. Bracamonte, who had been a leader of hooligans for over 20 years, had been banned from attending matches due to violent incidents.
