Video footage of a man pummeling a woman at a Rüfüs Du Sol concert at the Rose Bowl Saturday evening has shocked concertgoers, with some attendees voicing concerns about crowd control and safety measures at the sold-out show. The video, shared by festival news platform Festive Owl, shows a man knocking a woman to the ground and repeatedly throwing punches at her while other attendees try to pull him back.
“This man punched me in the face, knocking me out and causing significant bleeding, while he continued attacking our group,” the woman wrote in a message shared by Festive Owl. She is asking for the public’s help in identifying the attacker. The incident occurred in Section 12-H, Row 20 at the venue.
The victim said the man became agitated after a drink was accidentally spilled on him. According to the woman, he then yelled that the spill was intentional and stormed off before returning 30 minutes later screaming and threatening violence.
“I tried to calm the situation and apologized again — and the next thing I remember I woke up in a medical tent an hour later and missed the entire show,” the woman wrote. The Australian electronic music trio said in a statement shared on social media Monday night that they were heartbroken to hear about the act of violence that took place during the opening act of their show. They encouraged anyone with information on the incident to contact the Pasadena Police Department.
“This type of behavior is completely unacceptable anywhere and the fact that this happened at one of our shows was devastating to hear about,” the group wrote. “Local law enforcement is actively investigating the situation.”
In a statement, Pasadena police encouraged anyone with information to contact them at 626-744-4241.

Rüfüs Du Sol
Sounds gay.
I’m sure the injured party is as pure as the driven snow in the situation.
You sound like the kind of guy who enjoys beating women up.
Men’s rights...the war against men you know..
Wasn’t them.
I wager she probably looks like the chick who cut his hair.
If that's the case, then she deserved it! 🤡
Matt Damon!
Thanks for proving it.
Think that was sarc
He’s threatening me in private email. He’s exactly what he appears to be.
Women in your family are whores? Lucky guy. Then they can pay their own way. But they can’t cook for S. They’re pretty good with the McDonalds points program tho.
The psychotic weirdos are crawling out of the woodwork tonight.
When attacker left for thirty minutes he may have gotten loaded on drugs before returning and assaulted the girl. Maybe he used some George Floyd type drugs.
Sounds like what the black psychopaths said about Cleveland too.
Looks like some EDM thing. People going crazy just to watch some people push some buttons on stage.
What is a Rufus Du Sol?
