Colorado Rockies mascot Dinger attacked by fan during game
It was the dingbat versus Dinger.
Denver police are on the hunt for a crazed baseball fan who tackled and injured the Colorado Rockies mascot during Monday’s home game against the St. Louis Cardinals.
The beer-guzzling suspect — who was not wearing attire affiliated with either team — leaped into Dinger while the mascot was performing above the Rockies dugout at Coors Field, video shows.
The purple triceratops struggled against the fan, who was pushing the mascot toward the platform’s ledge, before falling on top of the assailant.
An employee grabbed the fan and escorted him away as Dinger struck a quick dance move, high-fived a fan and jogged off the dugout top.
The assailant was sipping a 24-ounce can of Modelo before he pounced on the mascot, who was injured in the unprovoked attack, the Denver Police Department said.
Police are offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to the assailant’s identity.
