The evacuation of thousands of concert-goers from the Homegrown Music Festival last night was reportedly sparked by a tattoo. Police said on Sunday morning that initial concerns were "to do with a tattoo" however they said the concern "was a mistake". It has been reported the tattoo was thought to be linked to far-right ideology, however, it turned out it was traditional.

Some of the Homegrown crew identified a person that they were concerned about and police made the call that person needed to be found," she said. "It all happened at the change-over of the music so people were moving around and police couldn't spot the person immediately so they made the call to evacuate the stage. "The person was found and it turned out that is was a completely innocent misunderstanding and everyone was allowed to return."

This is beyond dumb and scary. I thought New Zealand had more sense than this.

Just a ploy.
Seriously, how is looking at tattoos at a music festival, especially for those tattoos that might indicate a violent attack? Who makes that call on which tattoo is bad or good??
All smoke and mirrors....

If somebody expressed Incorrect Thought or used Incorrect Speech I can understand the panic. We have to weed out all the racistsexisthomophobic Speech for the children, especially since we only have twelve years left as a planet .

So if it was a “far right” tattoo they would have thought they did the right thing?

What was the misinterpretation of this tattoo?

They didn't even say what the tattoo was? Journalism in NZ is just as bad as it is here

The NZ aftermath is going to make a lot of people oppose racial profiling all of a sudden

I don't understand. Do we need Common Sense tattoo laws in New Zealand, or do they just need to ban all assault tattoos out right?

People like you think it's ok to profile white people. It's only bad when it happens to brown folks.

This has to be satirical. Otherwise, life must be so fricking hard for people who live with that much fear.
