Overview

  • The assault at Saturday’s sold-out Rüfüs Du Sol show followed an accidental drink spill, with the man returning about 30 minutes later before punching the victim, according to her account and bystander video.
  • Pasadena police confirm a report has been filed, say they have multiple leads on the attacker’s identity, and ask the public to contact Pasadena PD or L.A. Crime Stoppers with information.
  • The victim was treated in the venue medical tent, has since returned home to Arizona, and says her fiancé and a friend were also struck during the incident.
  • Rüfüs Du Sol condemned the violence in a statement and urged anyone with information to assist the investigation.
  • Attendees reported overcrowding, blocked walkways and safety concerns at the Rose Bowl; city officials said no formal complaints had been filed and noted on-site police, fire prevention and private security, with after-action reviews customary for major events.
