A football match ended in tragedy when a young player shot and killed the referee after he showed him a red card for a foul.
According to reports, the player retrieved a gun from his bag after being shown a red card, returned to the pitch and shot 48-year-old Cesar Flores dead.
The attacker was apparently sent off for flooring an opponent during the game
"It all happened during the match," said a police spokesman. "We don't know what happened with the referee but the player was angry and went to get his gun and killed him."
Police in Argentina are still searching for the footballer.
