Show Navigation

Karl Soehnlein (along with Darren Britton and Alan Klein) were attacked by two men with lacrosse sticks after Wigstock. Mark Carson was arrested when NYPD claimed he was interfering with the arrest of the two lacrosse wielding assailants. His arrest prompted a protest march of 200 people to the 9th Precinct, (though he'd actually been taken to the 7th Precinct) He was finally released, which ended the protest.
