San Diego police are investigating what appeared to be 'suspicious' deaths but said it is too early to determine whether the incident was accidental or intentional.
A woman and her 2-year-old son died Saturday afternoon after they fell from the third level of Petco Park, just as thousands of baseball fans were heading inside for a Padres game, San Diego police said.
The pair fell from the third-level concourse — the equivalent of six stories high — to the sidewalk below on Tony Gwynn Drive, Brown said. Although efforts were made to resuscitate the woman and child, it quickly became apparent that neither had survived the fall, she said. Brown said there may have been a number of people in the concourse area who might have more information, which, she said, could potentially “give the family some peace.”
The incident horrified fans who had come to Petco Park to cheer on the Padres taking on the Atlanta Braves at the tail end of the baseball season. Posts on social media reflected the sadness and shock of those who had seen what happened, and others in the stands at the 4:15 p.m. game talked about it among themselves.
