Riot Police Arrest 27 Fans After Maryland Upsets Duke

Wow, it's been a while since we've had a good ol' fashioned college student post-game riot. But leave it to the kids at the University of Maryland to show the rest of us how it's done.

Police arrested 27 post-game revelers in College Park after the University of Maryland's basketball win over Duke, officials said.  Accounts varied wildly, with some students saying they were acting peacefully when officers went overboard. Video footage aired by WUSA (Channel 9) showed what appears to be an officer clearly ramming a night stick into a young man's head.

Police officials defended their actions Thursday morning, with one saying students' behavior was "just ludicrous." Top officials from the Prince George's County Police Department are expected to address complaints as soon as this afternoon. Some of the officers on the scene wore riot gear. Some were mounted on horses.
