One man is seriously injured after a shooting at a kids football game took place Saturday in Ontario.
“We thought it was firecrackers at first, and then it started to be more so we knew it was gunshots,” said witness Lauren Bennett. “Everybody was running and scattering.”
The kids football game, involving 7 and 8 year olds who are part of Pop Warner programs in Ontario and Pasadena, was stopped, then canceled. Everyone was ordered to leave the game and avoid the area."Everybody scurrying everywhere," said Khalia Walk."You had parents jumping over the gates to get their kids on the field. It was a mess."
The identity of the man injured has not been released and police do not know how he was associated with the football teams. No arrests were reported. Authorities did not have a detailed description of the shooter or information about a motive.
