| "The San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders will end their annual preseason matchup as a result of the violence at Saturday's game, the San Jose Mercury News reported Monday, citing a high-ranking NFL source.
The source told the newspaper that both the NFL and local police are in favor of ending the preseason rivalry game.
On Monday San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee denounced the violence at the game at Candlestick Park, saying he witnessed some of the brawls himself as he sat in the stands.
Lee said Monday that he watched with horror as he saw several confrontations among fans. He called the behavior irresponsible.
Two men were seriously injured in the violence during and after the game on Saturday night. One victim was shot several times, while the other was beaten unconscious."
