Arrest Reported in Beating of Giants Fan Bryan Stow

By Bay City News Service

The Los Angeles Times this morning reported that police in the city have arrested a man in connection with the beating of Giants fan Bryan Stow.

Police went to an East Hollywood apartment at about 7 a.m. and arrested a man suspected of taking part in the March 31 attack at Dodger Stadium that left Stow in a coma, according to the L.A. Times.

Los Angeles police did not immediately return calls to confirm an arrest. Stow, a 42-year-old paramedic, was punched and kicked by two men  wearing Dodgers gear in a stadium parking lot.

They fled in a car driven by a woman in her 20s, police said. More than 200 billboards with images of the suspects were put up around Southern California in an effort to track down the assailants, and a reward of up to $200,000 was offered for their arrest.

Stow, who has been in a coma for nearly two months since the attack, was transferred from Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center to San Francisco General Hospital on May 16.
