Roosevelt Field Mall in Garden City was a wild scene Friday afternoon when thousands of screaming adolescent fans showed up for an appearance of 15-year-old Canadian music sensation Justin Bieber.
At least one girl was taken out on a stretcher as about 3,000 fans crowded outside of the "Justice" store on the second tier inside the massive Long Island shopping center at about 3 p.m., according to Nassau County cops.
"As the crowd surged toward the location, aggressive pushing and shoving caused a need for police response," Nassau County police spokesman Det. Kevin Smith said in a statement
"Approximately 35 police units and several Garden City Police units were dispatched to the location and, in the interest of safety for the large crowd, reportedly consisting primarily of teenagers, cancelled the event and dispersed the crowd. Four to five apparently minor injuries were reported," Smith said.
After it became clear that the event was turning into a hazard, Bieber tweeted: "They are not allowing me to come into the mall. if you don't leave I and my fans will be arrested as the police just told us."
And a few moments later he posted: "the event at roosevelt mall is cancelled. please go home. the police have already arrested one person from my camp. I dont want anyone hurt."
Cops said the arrested man was James A. Roppo, 44, of Hoboken, New Jersey. He is the Senior Vice President, Sales, for Island Def Jam Records. The investigation is ongoing and charges against him are pending, Smith said.
Wow,who'd ever thought something like this would happen,especially when it's Justin Bieber.To be honest,I'm still see-ing stars with glitters (w/o black glitters.).A boy that still hasn't reach puberty at the age of 15 years old.But still,managed to *compel lots and lots of people of all types.According to a believable source *shifty eyes*,he was 'discovered' through YouTube by this guy called,Scooter Braun (Scooter makes such a great name,doesn't it?).I don't mean to be rude or dis-respectful to all you Justin Bieber fans out there,but,I'm just speaking out loud.It's my blog anyways. ;)
Is he gonna be the next generation of the Jonas Brothers.Maybe this time,it'll be involving tight undergarments instead,rather than something everyone knows Jonas Brothers are famous for.I hope for the best for Justin Bieber and his singing career.Could Justin Bieber be one of our teen-hood memories we will reminiscence when we start smelling like oatmeals?
Justin Bieber,from where I last searched,has a fan-page with 990,824 fans as the page with highest number of fans among the other results.This I know is confusing monkeys in Botanical Garden (they steal bananas from tourists. =0)too.

*How do you spell 'compel' again?
