Students at University of Minnesota decided to get all Woodstock ‘99 when Talib Kweli failed to show at their annual Spring Jam concert because of flight troubles at O’Hare Airport.
According to the local paper over several hours Saturday evening and into Sunday morning, more than 500 students took to the 1300 and 1400 blocks of Seventh Street Southeast near the University of Minnesota in a contained party-turned-riot that culminated in heavy police presence and 12 arrests.
Partygoers tore down street signs and trees to fuel fires that crowds had started around 8 p.m., residents said.
People jumped on cars, rode in shopping carts and chanted around the fires as the evening progressed. Partygoers attempted to flip cars sporadically through the evening and harassed drivers attempting to navigate through the area.
