September 27th, 2004 - It was a big party for teenagers that ended
in chaos, and it was sponsored by the Clark County Health District.
Paramedics, HAZ-MAT and Metro were all called in after things got out
of hand at an anti smoking "Kick Ash" party. Now the health district
is facing tough questions. News 3's Kori Chambers reports some say the
county should have seen these problems coming, it's in it 4th
year."2004 Kick Ash Party" were told that something like this might
happen.
"There were concerns and we saw those concerns and we expressed our
concerns, and those were not followed through with." The party was is
sponsored by the
Clark County Health District, and
Metro wishes that someone had taken up their offer to hire overtime
officers to staff the event.
Instead, officers were called in after the fact, along with fire and
paramedics. Chaos spilled through in a crowd of more than 25 hundred
kids. They also tell us they had 30 security guards on scene, not just
the five counted by Metro.
Either way, it clearly wasn't enough to handle the crowd of more 25
hundred people.
