Man bites off another’s fingertip during brawl at Bruins-Coyotes game: report

A man was arrested after allegedly biting off the fingertip of another fan during a fight at an NHL hockey game, police said.

The fight between six fans broke out around 9:30 p.m. Friday at Mullett Arena in Tempe, Ariz., as the Boston Bruins played the Arizona Coyotes, the Arizona Republic reported, citing Arizona State University Police.

In a short video posted on Twitter, a group is seen throwing punches and shoving each other before police arrive. At one point, multiple people fall in the stands, tumbling into other rows. A police officer who jumps into the fray also takes a spill into another row. Several other officers then emerge and pull the combatants off of each other.
