A female concertgoer was violently knocked unconscious at a Rüfüs Du Sol concert in Los Angeles.
In a viral clip posted to X on Monday, a woman is seen being beaten by an unknown man before he disappears into the crowd at LA’s Rose Bowl Stadium.
The New York Postidentified the woman as Shelby Elston, a Phoenix mother-of-three.
This isn’t my usual kind of content, but this behavior is abhorrent anywhere — much less at a show. A longtime follower was brutally attacked over an accidentally spilled drink this weekend during Rüfüs Du Sol at the Rose Bowl and needs help identifying this person.
Elston said she spent the remainder of the concert in the medical tent, missing all of the main act.

The 33-year-old described the Australian dance group as her “favourite artist”.
Pasadena police have confirmed they are aware of the incident and will be investigating.
Spokesperson Lisa Derderian said because the video caught “a pretty clear shot” of the man, she was fairly confident he would be identified.
Rüfüs Du Sol posted a statement to their Instagram story about the incident.
“Delivering moments to our fans to gather and celebrate safely is what we live for. We have been heart broken to hear of the act of violence that took place during the opening act on Saturday.”
Known for popular house tracks “Innerbloom”, “You Were Right”, and “Alive”, the group headlined this year’s Chicago Lollapalooza.
They will be playing in New Zealand this year, with one show at Auckland’s Western Springs on November 29.
