Another individual, aged 23, was arrested for criminal trespassing during NFL game in New Orleans
A performer in Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl half-time show was ejected after unfurling a combination Sudanese-Palestinian flag with “Sudan” and “Gaza” written on it – but he is not going to face legal charges, police said.
The National Football League confirmed the person was part of the 400-member field cast who performed alongside Lamar at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. A statement from the New Orleans police department said the performer in question was “detained” and “ejected from the stadium after the incident”, but “no arrest [was made] nor summons was issued”.
