Man loses balance, falls to his death after game at Shea


NEW YORK (CNN) -- The daughter of a man who died after falling four stories at Shea Stadium said her father was not sliding down the escalator when the accident happened, as police reported.
A statement from the New York Police Department on Tuesday said witnesses saw 36-year-old Antonio Nararainsami of Brooklyn sitting on the banister of the escalator when he lost his balance and fell.
Nararainsami's daughter, Emily, told CNN affiliate WABC on Tuesday that her father was walking down the escalator, not sliding on its banister, as fans left the stadium after the New York Mets-Washington Nationals game. She said she and another relative saw what happened.
<!--startclickprintexclude--> <!--endclickprintexclude--> "He wasn't moving or nothing; he was just walking down. I guess he tried to say something to us or something, and I guess he just lost his balance and flipped over," she said.
Nararainsami died at Booth Memorial Hospital about 25 minutes after the 10 p.m. incident.
Police are investigating the death as an accident.

At this point...and I know it's still early... but at this point in the game I hope Chuck decided to be a good bitter citizen & watch the debates.

To hell with Chuck, I'm gonna go watch the stupid debate.

How can you <b>not</b> watch a classic like that?

We won by an unconverted touchdown.

Good grief, that was painful. I didn't get to see anything after the top of the 8th. . . just as well. :( Tavarez did such a great job last time out, but ugh.

Tonight, Beckett vs. Moose. I'm almost optimistic.

C.C., I understand, is "wrangling" for a new contract.
Maybe he's in a little funk.

He's definitely in a funk and I hope he clears his head quick. Aren't players supposed to have stellar performances in their final year of a contract? That's kinda what I was hoping for.

Anytime Moose pitches, the opposition is optimistic...to the point of being ecstatic.

Better days ahead. Carl Pavano is due back in August.
