NFL fan on life support after fight

A man is on life support after suffering a head injury at a NFL game between Baltimore and Oakland.

A Maryland man is in critical condition after suffering a head injury during a fight with two Oakland Raiders fans during a Baltimore Ravens NFL game.

Susan Bauer told The Baltimore Sun her 55-year-old brother and Ravens fan Joseph Bauer was attending the game with his wife on Sunday when he got into an argument with a group of Raiders supporters at M&T Bank Stadium.

She says her brother is on life support and doctors have told the family he had a 30 per cent chance of survival.

The Ravens said in a statement that their sympathies go out to Joseph Bauer and his family.

Court records show 28-year-old Scott Smith of Mount Vernon, New York, and 31-year-old Andrew Nappi of Eastchester, New York, have been charged with assault.
