WITNESS SPEAKS ABOUT CONCERT ARREST, RIOT
Carolyn Hauser said that when an Evergreen police officer handcuffed a
friend of hers and escorted him out of the Dead Prez concert early
Friday morning, members of the hip-hop duo said words to the effect of
"are you going to let this happen at your school?" and "what are you
going to do about it?"
Outside the concert at The Evergreen State College's Campus Recreation
Center, hundreds of young people blocked the officer's patrol car
after she put the young man in the back seat. The crowd later rioted,
throwing bottles, trash and rocks after backup law enforcement units
arrived, police said.
Riot police used pepper spray to disperse the crowd.
