Fucking Roseville Fire Dept. What ASSHOLES! Remember the video of the choir singing the Hallelujah Chorus in the mall food court. Well someone put one together for Roseville Galleria Mall. Word circulated in the churches, school system and internet. A good 5000 people showed up for the event. 15 minutes before the event was to take place they CLOSED THE MALL! They didn't disperse the crowd, THEY SHUT THE WHOLE MALL DOWN!!!! Police hilicopter circling above, cops at the entrances etc etc. EVERYBODY was pissed. Many boos at the announcement. Businesses pissed. In 15 minutes the event would have taken place. Many people would have stayed behind to shop waiting on the traffic to clear. I knew something was up when I saw the fire dept walk through.
They closed the mall and told them to leave the property. Talk about traffic jams. I was smart and got dropped off. Walked across the street to get picked up and left via a back route.
I must remind everyone that this is the same fire dept that shut the water off to this mall a few months ago, allowing it to burn! The same fire dept that is paying a retired battalion chief $13,000 a month. The same guy that let the mall burn.

Roseville Mall Evacuated Due To Flash Mob
Possible Overcrowding Cited
ROSEVILLE, Calif. -- Evacuations were ordered at the Westfield Galleria at Roseville Monday night because of possible overcrowding.
The mall was closed because of a so-called flash mob, or a group of people getting together to sing upon command.
The Sacramento Choral Society said on its web site, that "Hallelujah! A Spontaneous Celebration of Great Music, Community, the Season, and the reopening of the Westfield Galleria at Roseville," was planned.
The group took its event outside after the mall was closed.
Roseville Fire battalion chief Peter Mashnat said people claimed the floor was shifting and moving, and that they heard cracks and pops in the foundation.
He said officials wanted to evacuate people as quickly as possible.
Structural engineers are going to the mall to check for any damage, Mashnat said.
The extent of any injuries is unknown at this time.

Other than one fight that broke out, any injuries were caused by the closing. When I was there, no one had been injured.
