Reward For Giants Fan Attack Grows To $50K

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The reward offered for information leading to the arrests of two men who severely beat a San Francisco Giants fan at Dodger Stadium has grown to $50,000 after the teams kicked in contributions.

Spokesman Josh Rawitch said Monday the Los Angeles Dodgers will contribute $25,000. Giants spokeswoman Staci Slaughter says the team will pledge $10,000.

Bryan Stow, a 42-year-old paramedic from Santa Cruz, was badly beaten in a stadium parking lot after last week's season opener and is in a medically induced coma.

After the attack, Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich announced a $10,000 reward. Stow's employer contributed $5,000.

Police have released composite sketches of the two suspects, who were wearing Dodgers gear.
