Man charged for allegedly giving alcohol to Pirates fan before fall from stands

A tragic incident occurred at PNC Park last month when a 20-year-old Pirates fan, Kavan Markwood, fell 21 feet from the stands during a game against the Chicago Cubs. The fall resulted in severe injuries to Markwood’s skull, spine, lungs, ribs, and brain. The incident occurred while he was celebrating an Andrew McCutchen double during the seventh inning.

It has now come to light that Markwood’s friend, Ethan Kirkwood, has been charged with two misdemeanor counts of furnishing alcohol to someone under the age of 21. Kirkwood allegedly bought two beers for Markwood during the game, which was captured on security footage from inside PNC Park. The footage shows Kirkwood purchasing the beers shortly before the game started and later returning to his seat with two more cans of beer.

As Markwood fell onto the right field warning track, Kirkwood was seen jumping over a railing to help his friend. The game was temporarily delayed as medical staff tended to Markwood before he was taken to the hospital in critical condition. His injuries were extensive, including a broken neck and clavicle.

Markwood’s family has started a GoFundMe to raise money for his medical expenses and recovery. Despite the severity of his injuries, Markwood took his first steps on May 5, showing signs of progress. He is now undergoing physical therapy rehabilitation, which includes cognitive rehab for his brain injuries.

Dr. Al Philp, the Chief Medical Officer at Allegheny General Hospital, has reported that Markwood is progressing well. The road to recovery will be long and challenging, but Markwood’s family remains hopeful for a smooth recovery. They are grateful for the support of the doctors, nurses, and hospital staff who are assisting in his care.

The incident serves as a reminder of the dangers of underage drinking and the importance of responsible alcohol consumption. It also highlights the power of community support in times of crisis, as friends, family, and strangers have rallied behind Markwood in his journey towards healing.
