Electric Daisy Carnival gets off to a smooth start despite heat
The first day of the Electric Daisy Carnival was fairly calm with no fatalities reported, Las Vegas police said.
Insomniac Productions recorded 135,000 attendees Friday night, with police reporting seven crashes and three traffic citations, police said.
Thirty-six people were ejected from the carnival. Arrests included two misdemeanors, six driving under the influence and 22 narcotics-related felony arrests, police said.
Medical crews handled about 193 calls, not including walk-ins. Most of the calls turned out to be minor, but five people were taken to the hospital.
No traffic fatalities were reported.
