IUPD investigating DMX concert macing

After students were maced at Lambda Chi Alpha’s DMX concert Wednesday evening, the IU Police Department is investigating who is responsible for spraying mace into the crowd.\nIUPD Capt. Jerry Minger said all officers are required to make a report of where they were, what they saw, and whether they were at the concert or not to help figure out who is responsible for the macing.\nSeveral IUPD officers were working security at the concert, but Lambda Chi Alpha hired other security, Minger said. IUPD is investigating what the other security’s role was in the incident.\nThe concert was supposed to start at 8:30 p.m., but was delayed until 9:30 p.m. because of difficulties getting DMX to the house on time. The Student Activities Office shut down the concert after DMX sang three songs, Minger said.\nExtra IUPD officers were called to the scene when the crowd began to get rowdy. Eventually, the entire first row was maced.
