Kennedy's family is deeply grieving. They say he went to watch the game and don't believe he was directly involved in the brawl.
The victim's mother Sirod Geraldine Bordley said, "He was 32 and he had no enemies. They took him to Nazareth Hospital, one of his friends. I don't know who it was that took him in his car, put him in a wheelchair then left him. Please turn yourself in. He didn't do anything. He was with his friend seeing the game."
Investigators believe the gunman is also an adult man and they are working to find him.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
