Shelby Lynn Elston walked into the Rose Bowl ready for an unforgettable night of Rüfüs Du Sol’s music with her fiancé.
She left with a black eye and multiple lacerations after she was knocked unconscious in a brutal attack by a fellow concertgoer.
AdvertisementAt one point during the attack, Elston stopped breathing, which may have caused neurological injuries, according to her attorney Andrew Talebi.
“The Rose Bowl having bare bones security might make sense during UCLA football games when the stands are empty,” he said in a statement.
Elston and Webb suffered lost wages, medical expenses and emotional distress as a result of the attack, according to the complaint.
