Officers contacted the male victim who declined to cooperate with the assault investigation, which is on-going. The victim was there exercising his first amendment rights at the event. At the time of contact, the male was surrounded by several antagonistic event goers. Police implemented the time, place, manner restriction due to the public safety concern for the victim and to allow all parties to freely and safely express themselves. A designated protest zone for the male was established. Initially there was resilience from the male to comply as he attempted to reenter the event, and he appeared to understand the safety hazard he was creating by asking for a police escort into the event.
