A few fans hurt as railing gives way in Memphis

The Memphis Commercial Appeal (Ronald Tillery) reports: A railing that overlooks a tunnel leading to FedExForum locker rooms gave way Saturday night, injuring three people about an hour before the Grizzlies’ regular-season home finale. One person was taken away on a stretcher and two others were treated at the scene. Grizzlies spokesman Dustin Krugel said during the game all three were taken to various Memphis hospitals as a precaution. Witnesses said at least a dozen people were leaning on the rail requesting autographs from Grizzlies Hakim Warrick and Juan Carlos Navarro when it collapsed.
