Violent US Festival Leaves Rock Fans in Turmoil at Devore
Large crowds attended the three day US Festival in Devore California where violence marred the event. 145 arrests occurred and one man died in a parking lot during a drug related dispute. David Bowie performed a rare set to close the festival while Van Halen sparked disturbances earlier. Sheriff Tidwell cited lead singer David Lee Roth as contributing to the unrest and promoter Steve Wozniak said he would not bankroll another festival, potentially losing up to ten million dollars. A security guard suffered a skull fracture and three people were hospitalized after fights.
