Man Arrested in Attack on Unconscious Fan at 49ers-Raiders Game

Santa Clara police arrested Stephan Ramirez on November 10 on suspicion of felony assault and in connection with an outstanding warrant. Police said he was suspected of attacking an unconscious person during a fight in the Levi’s Stadium parking lot during Sunday’s game between the San Francisco 49ers and Las Vegas Raiders.

Video of the confrontation showed several people fighting, with one person appearing to kick and punch someone lying motionless. Officers had secured judicial authorization to arrest Ramirez and search the property, then detained him at his residence in San Jose.

The arrest came after a day of fights at the stadium and nearby parking areas. Police said at least 11 other people had been arrested, 45 people were ejected and two people were hospitalized; both hospitalized people have since been released. About 30 outside agencies joined the security operation.

The 49ers condemned the violence and reaffirmed their policy against fighting at Levi’s Stadium, while thanking law enforcement and security staff. Santa Clara police said detectives are continuing to identify suspects and urged people with footage of the fights to contact them.
