@cbs6_rva: Richmond Sheriff Antionette Irving is investigating a pepper spray incident that affected members of the band Turnstile and fans during Wednesday night's concert on Brown's Island. The Richmond Sheriff's office handled security at the concert, according to Richmond Police. During the show's encore, the band encouraged some members of the crowd to join them on stage, according to a fan who shared their experience with CBS 6. This is typical of hardcore shows and has been a staple of their current tour during the encore. In this video provided to CBS 6, security staff can be seen attempting to stop crowd members from getting up on stage, and a fan being sprayed in the face. Many people were affected, including members of the band. "I smelled the air getting a little spicy, and then my eyes are watering," someone who attended the concert told us. "I was like, 'Oh crap.' It's pepper spray." Sheriff Irving issued a statement to CBS 6 saying, "We are reviewing the concert activity and any allegations related to any incidents." We did not receive a response from The Broadberry, RMC Events, or the management of Turnstile.

That's an inappropriate place to be using pepper spray. cops really need a lot more training.

So... the Sheriff's office is investigating the Sheriff's office. I'm sure that'll go somewhere.

Considering the overwhelming amount of unsolved crime and murder going on in Richmond, live music should be the last of Richmond police’s concern yet they seem to have been at war against it for years now.

Earth to Hannah :
Concerts need to do a better job of telling artist if they can or can’t allow people on stage. Like I’ve been to concerts where it’s just awkward if they invite fans up and some cop or staff come and shove them off in front of everyone. It shouldn’t be that big of a deal because the fans and artist want to have fun. If they don’t want ppl to be on the stage then tell the artist that in advance
