Players brawl with fans at canadian "junior" football game (w/ video)

[Renew Deal]

Two alleged victims in a now infamous junior football brawl at Ivor Wynne stadium have stepped forward and filed official complaints with police.

The Hamilton police investigation had been at a standstill because without a complainant assault charges cannot be pursued.

Detective Glenn Bullock said he isn’t sure why it took the pair nearly a week to step forward.

But the two victims’ injuries are not serious, but he said they still required medical attention.

A three-minute video of the brawl last Saturday shows about a dozen players from Montreal’s St. Leonard Cougars football team go into the crowd and punch, shove, and kick Hamilton Hurricanes fans in the stands. At one point, a Cougars player hits a fan over the head with an empty milk crate. One fan was knocked out. By Friday afternoon the video had well over 330,000 views on YouTube.
