BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — A Mardis Gras-like celebration turned violent early today when fans upset by Indiana’s loss to Maryland in the NCAA tournament began throwing beer bottles at officers, who responded with tear gas.
As the acrid gas spread, hundreds of students and fans fled from an intersection near the edge of the Indiana University campus about 1:30 a.m., with officers arresting about 30 people.
The violence came after some members of an estimated 5,000 to 6,000 celebrating students and fans turned bitter after Indiana lost to Maryland 64-52 late Monday night.
About 40 people were treated at Bloomington Hospital for a variety of celebration-related injuries including burns, cuts and over-consumption of alcohol, a hospital official said.
Two state troopers received stitches after being hit in the head by objects thrown from the crowd, State Police Cpl. Rick Hash said. A juvenile, whose name was withheld, was arrested on a charge of battery on a police officer.
