Stabbing In Movie Area Of Comic-Con?

Various sources are reporting a pen-to-eye stabbing in Hall H or a similar large space during Comic-Con International earlier today. I'm not hugely interested in the story, given this site's focus on comics, but it's bound to have repurcussions in terms of issues like the frustration felt by people that are desperate for seats at the show to certain big-time movie panels. Given the number of people at the show, the pressures felt, and the maturing of the show in terms of attention to issues like this; something was bound to happen sooner or later. Depending on how ugly the facts are when they form out of the stew of rumors and speculations and eyewitness accounts that exist right now, there could be structural implications for Comic-Con as well. A wait and see story rather than a get the facts out now now now story, so let's all pay attention to it.
