Blink 182 avoid liability for security guard injury at 2016 show
A lawsuit against Blink 182 and Live Nation in relation to an injury sustained by a part-time security guard at a 2016 concert in Ohio has been dismissed, on the basis the band had no role in causing the injury, and Live Nation is immune because it paid into a fund that has already compensated the plaintiff.Kevin Darago was working at the Blossom Music Centre in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio when Blink 182 played there five years ago. He was injured when a fan crowdsurfing in the mosh pit kicked him in the left eye, causing vision loss.He then sued Blink 182, their promoter Live Nation and their management firm, then known as the James Grant Group, for negligence, on the basis they together failed to ensure his safety while working at the show.
