A Levittown man filed a lawsuit over injuries he allegedly sustained after he was tackled by police and security when the Eagles played the Arizona Cardinals at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia in December.
Longtime Eagles season ticket holders Gary Strain was with his wife Margaretta when officials, including a police officer dressed as a Cardinals’ fan, after he yelled an obscenity in a “good-natured” way, Philly.com reported.
