Iowa fan attacked at Camp Randall following Saturday’s game

A 15-year-old Hawkeye fan was attacked by a Badger fan after the Wisconsin loss to Iowa Saturday, according to a UW-Madison Police Department incident report.

While the victim was leaving Camp Randall wearing Hawkeyes gear, he was mildly teasing his Badger friend about the loss when an unidentified Wisconsin fan punched him in the face, according to the report.

The attacker fled into the crowd after the incident and UWPD is still looking for the suspect. He was last seen leaving the south stadium ramp from the upper deck.

UWPD Public Information Officer Marc Lovicott said the department will not stand for this kind of behavior at future Badger games.

“We pride ourselves, as Badger fans, to be respectful to all fans—great sportsmanship is what makes Badger game days one of the best and most well-known traditions in the country,” Lovicott said in the report.
