A scuffle broke out among patrons of the event which was taking place at the Macal River Park but the police is taking heat for the way officers handled the situation.

As a third-party video – which is used with permission – shows, police officers pushed a handcuffed man into the pan of a pickup truck.

He had apparently been detained.

An officer then got into a verbal exchange with another man who was concerned for the way the man was being handled.
