Cowboys fan killed by Redskins fan (video); Sentence revealed

In December of 2014, we reported on a Dallas Cowboys fan that was allegedly killed during an incident with a group of Washington Redskins fans at a restaurant in Chesapeake, Virgina.

Leaked surveillance video showed 48-year old Cowboys fan Charles Lee Setchel and Redskins fan Ronnie Cisko getting into a brief scuffle after having a heated verbal argument about their respective teams. Dallas had defeated Washington earlier that day, 44-17.

During the altercation, Setchel was struck in the throat and suffered a vertebral artery dissection. He later died due to that injury. After initially leaving the scene, Cisko returned to the restaurant and was arrested.
