It was later proven not to be violence that broke out, but just stoned white people dancing.

June 27, 1995 - The LAPD arrested streetwalker Divine Brown on Hawthorn Ave. where she was discovered giving British movie star Hugh Grant a blowjob in his white BMW. To be fair, they also arrested Grant for procuring said blowjob.

Also on this same date in 2001, police arrested comedian Paula Poundstone in Malibu, California on charges of lewd conduct with a minor.

Apparently, June 27th is California Celebrity Unzip Day...

On the very same date, June 29, 1967, actress Jayne Mansfield was scalped and killed in a car crash, when her convertible collided with a parked tractor-trailer. To downplay the gruesome death, sources spread the falsehood that only her wig flew off in the accident, but it was actually the top portion of her head (which is not technically a decapitation).

Mansfield's children were asleep in the backseat and survived the accident, including a 3-year old Mariska Hargitay.
