WE ALL KNOW ABOUT YELLING “FIRE!” IN A THEATER (can’t do it). Well, you can’t yell “Bomb!!” on a crowded sidewalk, either.
On Saturday the CW Television Network held a casting call for entrants wishing to try out for a new tv series, America’s Next Top Model, and the sidewalk was packed outside the entrance for hours. Many of the aspiring goddesses had been there all night and as the morning wore on the crowd kept getting larger, more compacted, and more edgy as personal spaces were getting invaded.
The police came and set up barricades to keep the mob from spilling out into the street and it grew and grew. Then suddenly a car coming down the street started overheating and stopped right in the middle of the gathering with steam pouring out of the engine compartment. Just then a couple of Darwins yelled, “There’s a bomb!!”
Before you could say “Twiggy,” panic broke out and hundreds of hotties in heels headed out like a buffalo herd in a lightning storm, knocking down the barricades and trampling each other by the dozens.

A video news crew across the street caught the action in this video provided by the Daily News:
When it was all over, the tryouts were canceled and the police arrested three people for inciting a riot.
