Video: Philadelphia TV Station Reports On FALLING IN REVERSE Frontman's Latest Arrest - Oct. 4, 2012
FALLING IN REVERSE frontman Ronnie Radke was arrested after the band's FestEvil performance in New Jersey for throwing four microphone stands into the audience and injuring a pair of audience members.

The incident happened Saturday night, September 29 at the Six Flags Great Adventure theme park.

One of the victims, a teenage girl, was left with a cut on top of her head and bruising on her forehead.

"The 16-year-old female suffered a three-inch laceration to her scalp which required staples to close. She was also diagnosed with a concussion," Jackson Township Police Captain John Siedler told WPVI-TV.

The other victim, 24-year-old Phillip Schwartz, walked away with a bloody gash in the head that required three staples to close the wound.

"I went to touch it and I felt my finger go into the wound and I said 'there's a dent in my head. There's a dent in my head,'" Schwartz said.

Kristin Siebeneicher, a spokeswoman for the theme park, released a statement in which she said that this was the first time a metal band has ever appeared there and it will be the last. "We have no plans to host another metal show," she said. "This performer was completely reckless. He had complete disregard for the safety of his fans. His actions were totally unacceptable. It's not the type of entertainment that we want to be producing."

Radke, who was released on $25,000 bail, was previously arrested back in August on an outstanding warrant for domestic assault.

FALLING IN REVERSE is scheduled to kick off "The Thug In Me Is You" tour on October 11 in Portland, Oregon.

A WPVI-TV video report, which includes fan-filmed footage of the alleged incident, can be seen below.

I really do also hope the band is NEVER booked anywhere after such a thing. The singer is a major asshole, hope they got sued and have to split up. Idiot !!! Go back to jail (where you came from... and remain a criminal) but don't hurt people who even paid to see you "perform" your shitty attitude !!!

...this jackass would be in jail and the girls family would sue the pants off the rest of the band so they'd have to get real jobs to pay for her injuries! But as we all know the example set by Vince Neil in the 80's, these guys will receive notoriety and become the next big thing!

They should all be up on multiple charges, not the least of which are being posers and making bad music!!!

What's even more fucked up is that the metal community is going to take heat for his actions and get a bad name,

This fucking band is not even close to metal. I'm going to write Six flags a letter to set things straight and educate them some

2006 -- lead singer Ronnie Radke was involved in an altercation in Las Vegas that resulted in the fatal shooting of 18 year-old Michael Cook. While Radke did not shoot Cook, he was indicted on battery charges. These charges, combined with Radke's past troubles with narcotics and rehab, led to a sentence of five years probation. He failed to report to his parole officer and was arrested in June 2008, where he was sentenced to two years in prison.

At the time, Radke was the lead singer of post-hardcore band Escape the Fate, which had released its debut album, Dying Is Your Latest Fashion, in 2006. Following Radke's incarceration, Escape the Fate kicked him out of the band.

Max Green, bassist of Escape the Fate, stated about Radke's law problems that, "First we couldn't tour out of the country, then out of the state." Radke was released on December 12, 2010.

do not embody anthing metal or punk rock, their fucking terrible and their stupid actions has made another venue stop having bands play their. This gives a bad name to metal because their bands that are incredible and don't act immature like these assholes and now they ruined it for everyone. This shit pisses me off just like the music of today pisses me off, have some common deceny and self respect and respect to the audience who paid to see you and they have to now worry about some ego pussy having a tantrum on stage and possibly injuring them. Fuck this band and the music out today. I prey I get to hear they die from cancer or a tour bus accident.

I actually emailed the park's PR person and got a response. She said that the reports were slightly exaggerated, that park never officially referred to this as a metal show, and while it would be unlikely for the park to host a similar event in the future, metal concerts aren't outright banned.

That said, I probably wouldn't go there for a concert, but their roller coasters are pretty cool.
