Fan injured after falling from bleachers at Wrigley Field

(CHICAGO) A fan was injured at Wrigley Field Thursday night after trying to jump onto the field from the bleachers during a rain delay.

Around 7 p.m., the game’s scheduled start time, a 20-year-old man tried to jump onto the field and injured himself, according to a Cubs spokesman and Chicago police.

He was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center in critical condition, police said.

The man was in the right field bleachers when he climbed onto the right field wall and lost his balance, police said.

The game began after the delay, and the Cubs played the Atalanta Braves.
