With another edition of the Electric Daisy Carnival in the bag, crime and medical incidents remained on par with previous festivals with upticks in traffic citations and medical calls, according to statistics released by Metro Police.
Metro reported a smaller number of felony arrests, from 62 in 2012 to 53 this year. Metro did not comment on the nature or number of drug-related felony arrests in 2013, saying that a majority of them were narcotics-related.

All of the statistics remain lower than the 2010 EDC held in Los Angeles, before the festival moved to Las Vegas. There, LAPD made 118 arrests, mainly drug-related, with only about half of the concertgoers in attendance compared with the Las Vegas event.

Pretty ridiculous how disproportionate the arrests where with the LAPD as opposed to Vegas, especially when the LA venue was much smaller in size capacity. It's a good thing whenever cops aren't entirely up the ass on people who are just safely having fun and keeping to themselves.
