A 45-year old man died at the Houston Texans' final preseason match, a 28-24 victory against the Minnesota Vikings at Reliant Stadium in Houston, on Thursday after falling three stories from the top of an escalator.
Police reports following the incident seemed to indicate that the man had been messing around the escalator and trying to slide down the outside handrail when he fell, landing on the pavement. He was reportedly pronounced dead on arrival when they reached the hospital.
The man was reportedly under the influence of alcohol when the incident occurred. As of right now, the man has not been identified and the Texans have declined to make a comment on the matter.
