Video: Violent Fan Gets Tazed at A's Game

The crowd seemed in favor of police using a stun gun to control the rowdy fan at Saturday's play-off game.

Police officers at the Oakland Coliseum used a stun gun Saturday night when a fan got unruly in seats next to the field. 

Unlike an episode in 2009 when Oakland police drew criticism after tasing a belligerent fan, nearby spectators at the playoff game against Detroit were urging the police to "taze" the middle-aged man who can be seen fighting with security personnel and police. 

The A's and the Detroit Tigers are tied 1-1 in a best-of-five American League Division Series. Game three is in Detroit Monday
