Boy Got Tackled by Security After He Ran Onto Field at Tampa Bay Buccaneers Game

Young fans are getting in on all the action.

A ten year old boy ran onto the field and was tackled hard by a security guard in the second quarter of Tampa Bay’s game against Atlanta on Sunday. A woman who identified herself as the child’s mother told The Associated Press the boy is 10 years old. A police officer later told the AP the boy is older than 10, but he couldn’t release his information because he’s still considered a juvenile. The officer said the mother has several children and was confused about which one jumped onto the field.

The incident occurred after the Buccaneers were lining up for an extra point after Leonard Fournette’s 1-yard touchdown run gave them a 6-0 lead.

Tampa Police Department spokesman Lt. Abe Carmack said there was “an incident involving a juvenile” at Raymond James Stadium during the game but no charges will be filed and no arrest was made.

Last week a protester waving a device emitting pink smoke ran onto the field during the San Francisco 49ers’ home game against Los Angeles and was crushed by Rams linebacker Bobby Wagner.

The protester filed a police report after being subdued by Wagner.
