Shame on the people involved.
It's not murder if both are willing participants. Could even be self defense, depending on the facts.

It might not be murder, but I bet a manslaughter (involuntary) charge could be in order.

Wow, terrible to let playing go that far leading to death. But grown men were at the Brass Rail not kids. I just hate that what I read was saying, play fighting. Grown f ing men, someone should have seen it was getting out of control and intervened. Maybe it was an accident, but still no excuse for who the other person or persons is IMO.

The comments after the article are UFB. I can't believe the family wants to blame the cops and the emergency responders.

Four firefighters shot, two dead at scene of blaze in western NY; 3 homes burning as police search for shooter | Fox News

This is the very reason why they have to wait for the police to clear the scene

Look folks, this is actually a good thing. Now this idiot cannot procreate and the other idiot will prolly do some time preventing him from procreating.

I look for the strawberry in everything.

Well of course it could never be the fault of their relative acting like an idiot!
