This weekend Cincinnati Police arrested 12 individuals on separate charges of possession, trafficking, and use of nitrous oxide gas. All 12 arrests stemmed from a two-day musical performance of the rock band Phish- held in Cincinnati’s U.S. Bank Arena. Police reports reveal that of those arrested, none were from the Cincinnati area. All are expected to appear in court this week.
Arrests included that of a 37-year-old male from New York and a 39-year-old male from Philadelphia who were detained for allegedly selling three nitrous filled balloons to an undercover police officer for $20. Both men are charged with trafficking a harmful intoxicant. Officers also arrested a 32-year-old male from Indianapolis inside the venue’s parking garage after witnessing him inhale from a nitrous balloon and attempt to flee. When police ordered him to hand over the balloon without letting go, he failed to obey orders; releasing two balloons into the air and destroying substantial evidence.
