VALLEJO, Calif. (AP) - A member of the San Francisco Youth Commission and officials at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom are giving
differing versions of a scuffle with security guards at the park over the weekend.
Nineteen-year-old Corey Carlson claims he suffered a concussion and broken bones in his face after being beaten by guards while celebrating the July Fourth holiday at the park.
Carlson was kicked out of the park Saturday evening after he says he was wrongly accused of smoking marijuana in the park.
A park spokesman says Carlson was being escorted out of the park
by security guards when he yelled obscenities and punched a guard.
When Vallejo police responded, Carlson was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.
