Suspect in Blue Jays-Orioles beer-tossing furor is identified
A photo released by Toronto police Wednesday of a man alleged to be the beer-tossing fan at Tuesday’s tense Blue Jays-Orioles game at Rogers Centre has set off a firestorm that has almost eclipsed the game itself.
The image released by police shows a man with dark hair wearing a Blue Jays shirt in the stands behind left field. It tipped off a tide of Internet rage and a citywide digital manhunt.
Late Wednesday, a Postmedia source confirmed to the Star that the man in the photo is Ken Pagan, a Postmedia employee

Multiple attempts by the Star to reach Ken Pagan were unsuccessful; however, the Toronto Sun — itself owned by Postmedia — reported that Pagan denied being the culprit, noting that he'd been drinking from a plastic cup on Tuesday. Pagan, Postmedia reported, had spoken with Toronto police Wednesday night and made arrangements to report to police but had not yet been charged.
