A man who wanted to be closer to the stage at Thursday night’s Country Thunder Music Festival was booked into the Pinal County jail after getting into a fight with deputies, authorities said.
Alexander Hull of Michigan moved the fence to the handicapped area, decreasing the size by five feet, in order to get closer to the stage, according to a post on the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page.
When a deputy approached Hull, he tried to hide in the crowd, but was discovered and removed from the event.
He started to fight with deputies, and was arrested in connection with disorderly conduct.
