Punk show held at Gasworks forcefully shut down by SeattlePD

Punk show held at Gasworks forcefully shut down by SeattlePD

For context:

This was a free show was held on Sunday, February 23rd.

The situation began due to an uncontrolled fire using treated wood pallets (which are toxic) in a nearby fire pit by presumed show attendees.

Firefighters put out the fire roughly around 9pm. 5/6 cop cars arrived about 20 minutes later with their sirens on and shining their lights at the crowd.

Close to half of show attendees left at the first sight of police lights.

At 9:30, 6/8 cops pushed their way through the crowd and began unplugging whatever they could and pushed over drum equipment.

No arrests were made.
