Kilmartin told the newspaper that he provided police with video he took of the incident. He said police led away the Dolphins fan involved.of Mooney’s condition in the aftermath of the altercation. “It was pretty hard to watch.”The Norfolk County district attorney’s office said Monday it was overseeing the state police probe into the incident. No charges have been filed.
Gillette Stadium officials said in a statement Tuesday that they were “heartbroken” to learn of the death of Mooney, who was described as a 30-year season ticket holder. “We continue to work with local authorities to assist them with their ongoing investigation,” the statement said. “We extend our sincerest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to Dale’s family and to all those who are mourning his loss.”“I just don’t understand why people have to go to that extreme,” Lisa Mooney added. “Why can’t it just be fun? That’s all it’s supposed to be, a fun family event. … I just feel numb. I just can’t even believe this is for real.
