San Diego Comic-Con 2010 stabbing!



Out of the dozens and dozens of stories we have reported here at Comic-Con here's one that I never thought I'd be writing.

Between the just ending Resident Evil: Afterlife panel and the Marvel panel a fight between two fans erupted when one of them wouldn't change seats. Sadly, the scene ended in bloodshed as the argument turned violent resulting in the man who wouldn't move being stabbed in the eye with a pen.

The victim has been stretchered out and the attacker (both adults) has been removed from the convention center by police in handcuffs, his exclusive Comic-Con Harry Potter T-shirt soaked in blood.

As a result the show's main ballroom, Hall H, has been shut down with convention center employees rapidly escorting attendees out of the area. Hall H is expected to reopen as soon as possible but at least an hour long delay is expected.

More soon, if need be.
