An Upper Sandusky man was taken to the hospital after falling from a van while tailgating before the Cleveland Browns home opening game Sunday afternoon.

 

TMZ Sports reported that 40 year old Andy Shepherd was taking pictures on the van when he suffered a seizure and fell onto the concrete below.

 

A Cleveland television station captured the fall while reporting from the scene.

 

Shepherd was taken to a nearby hospital where he is being treated for a broken shoulder, broken ribs and a fractured skull.

 

He is also said to be suffering from blood clots that require surgery.

 

As Shepherd is on the mend, his 17 year old son has started a GoFundMe (https://www.gofundme.com/f/1qz5htitk0?utm_medium=social campaign) to raise money to cover the medical costs.
