Man dies after being struck by golf ball at Chino golf course
From the Associated Press:
CHINO -- Authorities say a man who was hit in the head with a golf ball at a Southern California country club has died.
The San Bernardino County coroner's office said on its website Sunday that 69-year-old Hiroshi Tango of Brea died at a hospital Saturday.
On Oct. 7, Tango was playing golf at Los Serranos Country Club in Chino when he was hit in the head by a ball.
The coroner says he complained of head and neck pain after he was hit and he was taken to Loma Linda University Medical Center, where he "succumbed to his injuries" on Saturday, nine days after he was struck by the stray ball.
