"Fans turned their disappointment into anger."
People at the Playland Amusement Park in Vancouver.
Last night got a little too wild at the PNE Amphitheatre in Vancouver after fans got angry when the BreakOut Festival headliner, Lil Baby, didn't perform.
Videos on TikTok, Twitter and Snapchat show angry festival-goers destroying property during the hip-hop music festival. The PNE told Narcity that the Vancouver Police Department responded to the scene and "prevented the situation from becoming much worse."
The PNE also said that fans "turned their disappointment into anger" after the announcement that the festival's main act would not be performing.
BreakOut Festival wrote in a tweet that the rapper Lil Baby was "too sick to perform."
