A joyful night at PNC Park turned tragic on Wednesday, May 1. During the Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs game, 20-year-old fan Kavan Markwood fell from the stands, shocking players, spectators, and his hometown community.
The Incident
Markwood, from McKeesport, Pennsylvania, fell about 21 feet onto the right-field warning track during the bottom of the seventh inning. Just moments earlier, Pirates legend Andrew McCutchen had hit a go-ahead double, sparking cheers.
Witnesses told TribLive that Markwood removed his shirt and poured beer on himself to celebrate. However, he then lost his balance over the 36-inch railing in Section 142.
Quick Emergency Response
Emergency crews, including team trainers, EMS, and police, rushed to help. They stabilized Markwood on a backboard and transported him to Allegheny General Hospital. He remains in critical condition. Authorities confirmed they are treating the fall as accidental.
