Slayer in San Antonio on 06/23/06 - Assault witnessed?
I know this is a site based in NY, but here goes anwyay ... because I'm desperate, and a hardcore Slayer fan and hoping there might be someone that attended the show in San Antonio on this LJ group.
We went to the Freeman Coliseum Friday night in San Antonio, Tx, for the Slayer show (Unholy Alliance tour). Tickets were won from 101x in Austin by someone and sold to us, so I'm hoping that if anyone else won tickets they were in the same section as us and might have seen what happened.
The section was 126 right in of the first seats. For reference, section 125 would have been on the left of the area as you walked down into the arena.
We both were acting like all the other fans there and just having a good time jammin' out. Then, about 3 songs into Slayer's set, my boyfriend was jumped by about 3 or 4 cops (maybe more, I'm not sure) from behind, beaten down to the floor, pulled out and arrested. We have *no idea whatsoever* that could have triggered this as we were just standing there and looking at each other thinking how great this was.
So, please, if anyone was there or won tickets from 101x and sold them to someone that was there - if there's any way to contact who they might have been sold to, please let me know.
Also, if anyone knows of a good San Antonio LJ community to post this on, I'd be very grateful if you'd let me know of the link.
Also, in the scuffle we lost two of the shirts we purchased there - so that was $70. And the cops stole a bracelet he was wearing on his wrist, which my mother had given me 20 years ago. They didn't have that in his checked items at the station, so I'm assuming one of the guys liked it and decided to pocket it.
One last thing ... if anyone could recommend a pagan or pagan-friendly lawyer in Austin or in SA, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know that as well.
Thanks, y'all.
