this is what happens when you give a small angry teenager mind-control powers
From a regional newsfeed, dated January 14, 2055:
VISTA CITY - A performance by pop group Flashstep on Wednesday afternoon ended in a violent altercation between two audience members.
Witnesses state that Robert Miller, 23, assaulted Jason Lu, 39, near the end of the band's appearance at the El Dorado outdoor cafe. Miller was allegedly loud and disruptive during earlier portions of the performance, but had had no previous interaction with Lu, who was attending the performance with his daughter and her friends.
When Lu tried to repel Miller, Miller allegedly began describing a sexual act he wished to perform upon Lu. Lu instructed Miller to refrain from using explicit speech in front of his daughter and then punched him, witnesses say.
"He said, 'I'm gonna choke on your [redacted]' and was real, y'know, forceful about it," says Barbara Thompson, 46, who was also in attendance. "[Lu] says, like, 'Don't talk like that in front of the kids,' and then he punched him and he, the other guy [Miller], went down. Well, I mean, for lack of a better word."
"[Miller] was being super rude during the concert," said Tanesha Williams, 12. "He was like yelling stuff like 'You suck! Go home! Your music sucks!' and being like a huge jerk."
Miller was taken into custody by Vista City police, who reported that he seemed disoriented and claimed to have no motive behind his actions.
"It seemed like the right thing to do at the time," Miller is reported to have said.
