Original Toronto Star caption: Just before the mob stormed the gates of Ontario Place to try to get to the Forum concert last night; it confronts police. About 50 youths; shouting taunts; burst a padlocked chain blocking one set of gates closed two hours before show started. A capacity crowd of 20;000 was waiting for the show to start - featuring soul disco group K.C. and the Sunshine Band - when police ordered the drawbridge leading to concert bowl raised. But some fans swam moat.
