A high school football game in Southern California on Friday was canceled after an overflow crowd created a disturbance that caused police to appear in riot gear. Long Beach Poly led Serra, 28-14, at the half when the incident occurred. Police have their riot gear now at the Long Beach Poly vs. Serra game. Halftime has been delayed for about 30 minutes and counting. pic.twitter.com/e7KVsjA3NY — John W.
