Gym Class Heroes singer arrested

Gym Class Heroes singer Travis McCoy was arrested after getting into a scuffle with a fan at the Vans Warped Tour. Apparently the rowdy fan was heckling McCoy with racial slurs, inlcduing calling him a "fucking ignorant nigger." 

The bands Management said, "Somebody in the crowd was taunting Travis with racial slurs. Travis invited him onstage with the intent of calling him out in front of the crowd, with absolutely no intention of a physical altercation. When he tried to help him onstage, the guy hit Travis in the knee area (which has been in a brace because of a recent sprain), forcing Travis to defend himself.

At this point, a scuffle broke out. This whole incident is unfortunate. Travis McCoy and Gym Class Heroes are anything but violent. Their message is about racial unity and having a good time. It’s amazing that in 2008 there are still people out there that would say such ignorant things."

Apparently the footage will be up on YouTube soon, so stay tuned!
