Pittsburgh Police are investigating after a fight that broke out in the stands Saturday during the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions preseason game at Heinz Field.

In a video that is circulating on social media, a woman slaps a man and he hits the woman back and another man in a brief melee that lasts about 20 seconds.

Another man appears to settle the scene down.

Pittsburgh Police are asking the public to identify the people in the fight.

Steelers spokesman Burt Lauten said that Heinz Field management is working with staff and local authorities to gather more information and identify the people involved.

“This kind of conduct is inexcusable, and we will respond accordingly once more information is obtained,” Lauten said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Pittsburgh Police at 412-323-7800.
