GALVESTON, Texas — Police say officers were overwhelmed trying to restore order as a spring break rap concert ended in multiple fights on the beach at Galveston, Texas.
Galveston police Lt. Jorge Trevino says it took officers almost four hours to clear the streets after the concert on Sunday and at least 12 people were arrested.
Four officers were initially assigned to patrol the concert but eventually all of Galveston’s on-duty officers were sent to the scene.
The concert was called the ''Spring Break Party Beach Bash.’' It was hosted by a Houston radio station that said scheduled performers included 2 Pistols, Colby O’Donnis, Lil Wil & Lil Keke, and Webbie.
