According to a tweet by Adam Rubin of ESPN (http://twitter.com/#!/AdamRubinESPN/status/69440534342680577) the fan “temporarily evades police” so I’m not sure he got away. Where did you hear he had absolutely escaped?
In my mind, he got away. I’m sure he actually didn’t. I was hoping, as I watched the video, that he’d somehow end up on the train up on the wall in left field, and ride out of the stadium. That truly would have been a great escape.
Always leave ’em wanting more.
But the train station is full of Nazis!
I haven’t been able to find a news story on this – I’d really like to know whether he got away or not.
