Arrest
On June 21, 2008 at 1:30 am,[4] during a concert at the Disco Rodeo nightclub in Raleigh, North Carolina, a fan threw a bottle at the stage. Rivera stopped singing, demanding to know who had thrown the bottle; Oscar Alexander Paz raised his hand, claiming that he thought Rivera was asking for someone to dance with her. Once security had apprehended Paz, she yelled at him and hit him with the microphone, cutting the skin around his eyes. After the show, Wake County police department arrested her for assault.[5] She spent several hours at the Wake County jail before being released on a $3000 bond.[6] Rivera did not appear at her trial. She later apologized to Paz and invited him to one of her concerts in Los Angeles, California as a VIP fan.[7]
