CORRECTION:

It was NOT after the concert as first reported, it was BEFORE the concert. Tickets were SOLD OUT and the crowd became livid. (even trappling each other, as well as assaulting police)
-------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE : NBC New York & CNN

Arrests :
97 (51 last year but there was NOT a riot, it was mostly fights within the crowd themselves)

Officers Wounded:
10 or more( mostly minor injuries)
