Hot 97’s Summer Jam 2015 ended with the riot police after people tried to break into the concert at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey.
Summer Jam featured performances by Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar and Big Sean, to name a few, but all eyes were outside the stadium. New Jersey state troopers appeared in riot gear after police were unable to subdue a rowdy group of people clamoring to attend the concert. According to reports, the chaos began between 7 and 8 p.m. when all entrance gates were closed except one, forcing all ticket holders to converge. “People been standing out here for over three and a half hours just trying to get into a concert that they paid for,” one witness told CBS.
It’s unclear whether the mob that formed outside the gate was full of ticket holders or people desperate to get into the sold-out concert – likely it was a bit of both. Unable to control the crowd, police intervened and shut the gates, angering people who had tickets and were waiting to gain entrance to the show. Police then began arresting people and pepper-spraying them. Some crowd members reacted by throwing bottles and trash at the police, which led to the riot police being called in.
