WSBTV.com reports that the man who was beaten in Atlanta during a concert by KORN on Sunday (July 30) has died — and now his family wants answers, and police want your help finding those responsible. [Watch WSBTV.com video report at this location.]

It happened at the Hi-Fi Buys Amphitheater during a concert by the group KORN. Police say 30-year-old Andy Richardson was beaten by two other concert-goers.

Homicide investigators are looking into the beating. Andy Richardson passed away just after 2 p.m. Tuesday (Aug. 1). He has been declared dead, but is on life support so they can harvest his organs for donation.

Gloria Richardson is trying to figure out how a night of fun could end with her son's death.

"Can you imagine your child goes to a concert and be killed for it, because of people out there fighting to have a quote unquote good time?" says Gloria Richardson.

Gloria is still trying to comprehend how her 30-year-old son, Andy, ended up brain-dead after he was attacked during the concert. She also can't understand how the attackers got away.

"And I'm angry. I'm very angry. Why were the police not there to stop them," says Gloria.
