BENEFIT ENDS WITH 10 ARRESTS

'Safe, Drug-Free' Benefit Concert Ends With Arrests For Drug Possession And Assault On Police Officers.

Billed by town officials as a safe, drug- and alcohol-free night of entertainment for local teenagers, Friday night's benefit concert at the Township Activity Center turned violent and ended in 10 arrests -- including one for drug possession, authorities said.

Police said four adults and five juveniles were arrested, some for aggravated assault on police officers, after several of those in attendance became disorderly when police shut down the event, which they felt had begun to get out of hand.
