Models stand before judges during auditions for an upcoming fashion ...

I hate to be such a downer, but when I first read this, I thought, "Is it really that serious?" When three people are arrested and six people are injured after a stampede, that's one thing; the fact that it's within a crowd on line for auditions for "America's Next Top Model" is.... well, I don't know what to say. In any case, no one knew how the fracas started, but in the end two women and a man were arrested on disorderly conduct while two out of the six women were taken to a hospital to be treated for their injuries; the other four chose not to seek treatment.

Oh, yeah... The audition was canceled.
