Toilet bowl kills fan

A BRAZILIAN football fan was killed when he was struck in the head by a toilet bowl hurled from stadium stands as supporters of rival clubs clashed in the World Cup host city of Recife. A police officer  said fans ripped three toilet bowls out of stadium restrooms and threw them from the stands, killing a fan identified as Paulo Ricardo Gomes da Silva. Also this weekend, authorities detained more than 40 people because of fighting outside a stadium that will host World Cup matches in the nearby city of Natal.
