Drake's gig nixed due to unruly fans
NEW YORK, (UPI) -- Rapper Drake's planned free concert in New York was canceled Tuesday after fans became out-of-control, police said.
EW.com said the crowd at Manhattan's South Street Seaport grew restless when informed the entertainer would not be arriving until 90 minutes after his set was scheduled to begin.
One man was charged with disorderly conduct for throwing a bottle off a balcony, while several others were arrested for interfering with the arrest. Six people suffered minor injuries during the commotion.
Concert organizers said they expected 8,000 to 10,000 fans to turn out for the event, but police said more than twice that many showed up, EW.com reported.
