Almost two dozen music goers were rushed to hospital and four arrests were made for possession of marijuana at the Nikon Jones Beach Amphitheater, according to New York Post’s Page Six.

An 18-year-old man was so intoxicated that he broke his nose after falling over, and reports from staff at the venue state teenagers loitered around the car park and toilets drinking vodka from water bottles which lead to three arrests and the restrooms being closed.

The news comes after it was reported that 42 people were injured at the Camden, NJ, leg of the tour on Friday when a railing collapsed. And, a crackdown on use of fake IDs resulted in 43 arrests Sunday at the Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa concert at the Saratoga Springs show in New York.
