KCBS reporter Tim Ryan, on scene at the Mavericks' surf contest along the San Mateo coast, filed an emotionally charged report direct from the event, describing a scene of mass chaos and injuries involving some of the thousands of on-lookers.
Ryan spoke to anchor Janice Wright during an unusually long 4-5 minute account. You could hear the anger in Ryans' voice as he described the daunting 40-ft waves pound the beaches; he reported several injuries had taken place and that the organizers of the contest had no bullhorns to alert the fans and organize crowd control.
"I can't believe what 'I see here," reported an angry Ryan. "They, (the organizers) had to know the size of these waves would be a 'problem and they didn't warn the people lined up here."
