Duck!

Paul Steinbach Headshot

As a University of Oregon senior majoring in sociology, Katelynn Johnson probably knew something about mob mentality even before she was rendered unconscious by a full water bottle anonymously launched from within the masses at the University of Arizona's football stadium last month.

The perpetrator, one of countless individuals who threw things toward the field, remains unidentified, but an investigation is ongoing, according to University of Arizona police spokesperson Sgt. Juan Alvarez. When asked if video surveillance equipment is in place at Arizona Stadium, Alvarez informed me via e-mail, "We have many security measures in place. I will not comment on the specifics of those measures."
