EPHRATA — Grant County sheriff’s deputies arrested 23 people during the Paradiso electronic dance music festival over the weekend at the Gorge Amphitheater at George.
That was about the same number as last year. Most arrests were drug-related; two were for vandalism.
Calls for help — with trespassing, fraud, theft and traffic accidents — declined from 87 last year to 76.
More than 25,000 attended the two-day festival. The sheriff’s office says most were polite and just wanted to have a good time.
