Three people were arrested last night in San Bernardino for attacking police.It started last night when police went to investigate a car crash on West Fifth Street in San Bernardino. A party was raging nearby, and for some reason partygoers decided to attack the police who were investigating what appears to be a totally unrelated crash. They threw rocks, full bottles of beer and cinder block from a wall, according to ABC 7. No officers were hurt.

Details are sketchy, but for some reason, KABC and investigators seem hesitant to admit the obvious: that alcohol was involved (even if other drugs were, too).
