Some of the guys in We The Kings and Forever The Sickest Kids, including their crew, were involved in a brutal beating by the Philadelphia Police. It’s not yet known why this incident happened, but according to tweets from Travis Clark, Jonathan Cook, and Caleb Turman (from We The Kings and Forever The Sickest Kids respectively) the police pulled nightsticks, and were screaming, “Do you want to die tonight?” and “We don’t care about you!” Three people where then brought to jail, and one was brought to the hospital for head injuries.
Apparently this all started when the guys were loading the vans in front of the club when the incident occurred.
Alt Press was the first to cover it. Here’s the link to the article.

There are videos and pictures and witnesses who posted blog immediately after the incident. You can find links to these through the link above.
This is ridiculous! Abuse of power at it’s best. Let’s hope something happens to the police officers involved. Completely unnecessary!
