Arsenal fan sh@t dead by security for celebrating win over Manchester United
In Uganda, a security guard sh@t and k#led an Arsenal supporter as they celebrated the team’s triumph against Manchester United.
The guard opened fire on a sizable group of joyful fans at a restaurant in Lukaya town, central Uganda, approximately 100 kilometres (62 miles) from the capital Kampala, injuring another fan.
It took place in the closing moments of Arsenal’s 2-0 victory.
According to reports, the manager of the restaurant became enraged by the raucous cheers of the supporters and requested that the security step in, a local journalist told the BBC.
But despite a warning to calm down, the fans ignored it.
The owner turned off the restaurant’s electricity, which infuriated the patrons, who then started making even more noise, witnesses told journalist Farish Magembe.
The guard is said to have opened fire at that point, firing multiple shots.
John Ssenyonga, 30, was the victim and passed away on the spot. Lawrence Mugejera, another ardent Arsenal supporter, was admitted to the hospital for medical attention.
Following the event, the authorities are searching for the building’s management and guard, who are both on the run.
“We condemn the incident and we ask anyone with information that can help the police to bring the suspect to book to speak up,” the police spokesman said.
