Chaos at Roosevelt Field Mall

On, Saturday, November 21st, teenage singing sensation Justin Bieber was scheduled to make an appearance at the Roosevelt Field Mall on Long Island. 10,000 fans were expected to show up. Many girls and their parents had been camping out since 7:00 a.m. to get bracelets, but they grew restless. The teenage fans were ecstatic to see him, but their huge numbers forced the police to cancel the event.


People started screaming and pushing forward towards Bieber, causing a riot. Some were trampled and this caused an incredibly dangerous situation for the other mall shoppers. Parents started to get just as bad, if not worse, as the teens. One of PAWS’ very own works in the mall, and was told by her manager that a parent had screamed at her, because the parent’s child ran into her.


The event at the Roosevelt Field Mall was cancelled before Justin Beiber could even set foot into the mall. It led to the arrest of Beiber’s record executive who refused to cancel the event despite the threat of thousands of rabid fans. Bieber finally tweeted his fans to leave the Roosevelt Field mall because police were threatening to start arresting unruly fans. An investigation of Beiber’s record executive is underway due to the charge against him for endangering the people of Roosevelt Field Mall.
