HAYWARD -- A woman was arrested Saturday after allegedly jumping on stage at a music festival and attacking a legendary musician after he dedicated a song to Trayvon Martin, according to police and eyewitnesses.
The woman, who police identified as 43-year-old Dinalynn Andrews Potter of Barstow, apparently yelled, "it's all your fault" before shoving 73-year-old Lester Chambers, his family said Sunday.
"She had a crazed look in her eye," said Kurt Kangas, a friend of Chambers who ran to his aid. "I saw the devil there."
Chambers was performing at the Hayward Russell City Blues Festival downtown when around 5:15 p.m. he dedicated Curtis Mayfield's hit "People Get Ready" to Martin, the 17-year-old shot and killed by George Zimmerman.
A Florida jury acquitted Zimmerman on all charges Saturday.

People are getting tired of the Justice 4 Trayvon Racists
The woman who attacked him, Dinalynn Andrews Potter, is white, but by all accounts “tiki as a cocoa”.
Martin wasn’t on trial, since he was supposedly the victim, but it was certainly proved that he wasn’t out for a stroll in the rain and that Zimmerman wasn’t watching him because he was black but because of his behavior, and that he attacked Zimmerman and not the reverse.
Look at when it happened. It was 5:15 pm PDT, or 8:15 edt.
That’s about 45 minutes before the verdict was announced.

Sounds like white Hispanic Amish to me.
if you’re trying to imply he knew of the outcome early, i wouldn’t go there.
he was saying he wanted to pay tribute to the thug.
regardless of the verdict, the thug is still dead
Actually, that wasn't exactly proven. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that GZ started the fight and quickly began losing it to TM.
It is not very likely, given the known actual facts, but it is possible.
The key is that missing four minutes. Nobody knows what happened then except GZ, and it is reasonable to assume that it might be colored by his own self-interest.
Now I believe your account is probably accurate, but I think we should differentiate clearly between what has been proven or at least indicated by evidence, and what is basically an unsupported story.
