Police Officer Allegedly Assaulted At AC/DC Concert

August 24, 2009

Winnipeg Free Press reports that a Toronto, Ontario, Canada woman has been arrested after a Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada police officer was allegedly assaulted at the AC/DC concert Saturday night, police say.

The 29-year-old woman was removed from the rock concert for "disruptive behavior" around 10:30 p.m., police spokesman Const. Jason Michalyshen said.

While being escorted out, she allegedly assaulted the officer. Alcohol was a factor in the incident, Michalyshen said.

The woman faces two counts of assaulting a police officer and was detained at the provincial Remand Centre.

Michalyshen also said that noise complaints about the concert appeared to be down.

"More people were aware and did a better job of preparing for the concert," he said.
