Bieber fever meant no access to Dean Street from Sixth Avenue; then, cops ordered the barricades taken down

The Justin Bieber concert tonight at the Barclays Center is at 7 pm, and some 2.5 hours beforehand, arena officials put up barriers along Sixth Avenue perimeter of the arena block, on the southeast, thus giving fans a place to wait.

However, they also blocked a public sidewalk. The police just broke up that crowd and had the barricades removed, I'm told, and sent everyone to the arena plaza.
