Utah RAVE Raided by SWAT Team
Monday, August 22, 2005


The “war on drugs” took on a literal meaning this past weekend when SWAT Team agents in full military combat regalia stormed a RAVE an hour outside Salt Lake City, Utah. Covered in a recommended blog on Daily Kos is a firsthand account detailing what transpired at the event on Saturday, August 20, where military soldiers swooped on the crowd of about 1,500 people in the Spanish Fork canyon. The event’s promoter claims to have attained all the necessary permits to host the RAVE and even had an insurance policy of 2 million dollars.

That video that's circling the net appears to be the only one. The soldiers (it was the National Guard and the police) confistcated all the recording equipment (including phones).

There was a few other videos going around on other websites (american DnB sites)but they seem to be "struggling with bandwidth", One particiular one was nasty where a girl ask's whats going on to a National Guard, He freaks and grabs her and she falls and about 3 of them give her a good kicking, She was about 5'3" and not a threat to anyone. Alot of the sites have taken down the videos because they are going to be used in lawsuites against the cops, and they dont want them to know what they have against them. Its ment to have stemed from a raid on an Illegal rave a few yeas back in the same place, that the cops couldnt handle and the crowd over powered them and wreck the cop cars and gave them a good kicking.....
