Guatemalan singer fires gun at concert, arrested

GUATEMALA CITY -- Guatemalan police say they have arrested a singer who fired a gun at a concert after he was told to get off the stage before playing. No one was hurt.

Police spokesman Sergio Garcia says Diego Lopez of the band Santa Cecilia fired eight shots in the air and at the stage Saturday night at a concert in the city of Quetzaltenango.

Garcia says Lopez was angry that the promoters asked his Guatemalan band to get off stage before starting to play because the Mexican norteno band El Trono de Mexico was ready to perform. Garcia said Sunday there was panic among the audience but that El Trono de Mexico continued to play because no one was hurt.
