A Maryland father was brutally beaten to death outside of his home while protecting his children from a group of teenagers and adults who wanted to finish a fight that started at school, according to the man’s family.
Christopher Michael Wright, 43, was outside of his home Friday when he was confronted by three teens and two adults that were looking for his fiancée’s 14-year-old son, who had gotten in a fight with another teen at Brooklyn Park Middle School earlier in the day, WBAL-TV reported.
When Wright told the group that the boy was not going to come outside to fight, they told him “’If he’s not going to fight, then you’re going to fight,'” Wright’s fiancée Tracy Karopchinsky told the outlet.
The group attacked Wright, who was then taken to an area hospital where he died from a traumatic brain injury on Saturday.
