The Police officers support is donated by the City of Richmond to assist in safety and hospitality. Police found that the street closure had not been appropriately permitted, hence the activities were suspended. It should be noted that the gallery was due to close not long after the police disbanded the activity allowing them to perform for most of the event.

For almost five years, this voluntary lane closing has been safe, effective, and fully supported by the police officers who attend and watch over the event each month. That “common sense” approach came to a crashing end last night when more than a half-dozen of Richmond’s Finest, led by a portly Sergeant on a two-wheeled Segway (go figure), mounted their assault.
