Security Firm Settles Injury Lawsuit

A California security company has settled a lawsuit with two men over injuries they sustained at a heavy metal concert in 2007. Michael McClelland and Stephen Holloway claim in their lawsuit that they were both attacked and beaten by concertgoers at Ozzfest on July 21, 2007 in Devore, Calif. The lawsuit states that the security guards hired by Contemporary Services Corp. of Northridge were “too young and under-trained to act as security guards at a heavy metal concert.” The security guards told the men that they did not want to be injured themselves, and that the men should instead leave after they reported the violence, the suit states.
