Police Chief James White said a second person died the day after the incident.

The fight took place at a popular meeting place for NFL fans about a mile from the stadium. “I don’t know all the details, but any time someone loses their life, it’s a tragic incident,” Lions coach Dan Campbell said the day after the loss to the Bucs.

The team of receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown had lost 16:20 on Sunday afternoon, shortly after which two shots were fired following an argument, it was reported.

A suspect has been arrested. The victims are men from Detroit, one in his 40s, one in his 20s, police said.
