VIDEO: Fans Destroy Each Other and Knock Over Police Officer in Monster Brawl at Indians Game
By Parker White
Was this a Cleveland Indians game or a WWE event? Things got scrappy during the ballgame on Sunday night, and a bunch of Tribe fans began whaling on one another. The fans were literally rolling down rows at Progressive Field, while bystanders backed up in sheer confusion.

And while the fight escalated, I'm sure you were thinking, where's a cop when you need one?
Sadly, as you see towards the end of this video, there was a police officer on the scene, but it appears that he took a beating in the dispute, as he was being attended to by fans, looking rather shaken up.
How did I miss seeing this last night? Hah! What a scene in Cleveland. Rowdy. RT @SportsFanFights: Indians fan drops the people's elbow during wild stands brawl ?https://t.co/xAYeBBcccD

There's a great chance alcohol was involved, and when you add that with an Indians loss to Minnesota in the heat of an AL Central race, I guess this is what happens in the cheap seats at Progressive Field.
