A LEAGUE ONE clash was stopped after a medical emergency in the crowd.
And the players were forced off the pitch as the incident was dealt with.
Exeter led Blackpool 2-1 at home during the first half at St James’ Park.
But in the closing stages before half-time, the referee halted play.
A supporter in the away end needed treatment.
So the officials took the players off briefly before bringing them back out to continue the match.
Exeter tweeted at 3.41pm: “38 | A break in play as a medical incident in the away end is being dealt with.”
They then added: “40 | We are back underway.”
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
