STOCKPORT, England - A crossbow arrow was fired into a soccer stadium, whistling past one of the players and forcing the amateur game to be called off.
The game between Woodley Sports and Alsager Town in the Unibond first division was abandoned in the 77th minute Saturday after the referee noticed the bolt embedded in the field. Police were called to Woodley's stadium, and the arrow will be examined.
"We wondered if it was a firework or something that had gone on that no one else had seen," Alsager chairman Graham McGarry told Sky Sports News on Sunday. "He brought the managers together with the object and brought the players together and marched them off, all within two minutes.
McGarry said the 2-foot steel arrow sailed into the stadium from outside and nearly hit one of the Woodley players.
"All the players were in agreement with the referee, you could not carry on," McGarry said. "After one was fired they may have been set up outside the ground to fire more."
