MONTREAL -- A Montreal man died of a heart attack after he had rushed to support his 15-year-old son who had just been spat on at an amateur hockey game. "He was talking to his son to give him some encouragement," spectator Michel Gaudreau said.
"He was holding his hands, he sat down and then he collapsed."
Gaudreau, whose son was playing in the game, said ambulance technicians spent about 30 minutes trying to revive the man.
As well as spitting at the boy, some parents had thrown objects at him.
