Rock Vegas Records hardcore band Cut Throat is said to have been attacked by police officers after a show in Leominster, Massachusetts.

According to a post on the Bridge 9 board, the incident began with a fight taking place at aa show which was broken up by the cops and soon escalated:

Cut Throat was only trying to load up their equipment peacefully to leave the show and go home. They kept pushing the band members trying to get a rise out of them , and finally while Andy was on his way out holding a guitar head, five cops tackled Andy to the ground and beat him.

While Andy was pinned down and being arrested, Scott, [Cut Throat's] bass player, was demanding to know why Andy was being arrested (because he hadnt done anything). The cops kept telling him to leave, and finally , they maced him. They also maced the drummer Martin and his girlfriend. Then , for reasons unknown, they tried to arrest Joe. He is on probation and wouldve got fucked for a bogus charge, so he tried to flee. The cops chased him down and beat him with battons so bad that he is in the hospital right now.

A number of posters on the Bride 9 board have decided to contact the media and have been speaking to both the Mayor of the town and local news.

One local news source seems to be leaning in the other direction, presenting a claim that "these kids were totally out of control."
