City Manager Raul J. Aguila said “It was quite simply overwhelming. It looked like a rock concert: you couldn’t see pavement and you couldn’t see grass…”
“We’ve done everything we can to try and mitigate the behavior we’re seeing,” Clements said. He said that in one incident on Thursday night, a crowd of hundreds of people had formed a mob and began to use tables and chairs as weapons.
