Braves, family of fan who fell to his death over railing settle suit

After years of contentious litigation, the Atlanta Braves and the family of a fan who fell to his death at a 2015 game have settled a wrongful death lawsuit filed against the ball club.

The suit was filed in 2016 by the widow and surviving son of Greg Murrey. Standing up in his second-row, upper deck seat at Turner Field, the 60-year-old grandfather lost his balance and toppled over a 30-inch-high guardrail to the lower level. He was pronounced dead on arrival at Grady Memorial Hospital.

Terms of the settlement were not disclosed in court filings.
