Thousands Seek Food Vouchers in MilwaukeeMonday, 23 Jun 2008, 11:13 AM CDTMILWAUKEE (AP) - Milwaukee police say some 2,500 people fought and shoved each other on Monday after hearing - incorrectly - that they could receive free food vouchers.Authorities say the crowd started lining up at the Marcia P. Coggs Human Services Center about 5 a.m.Milwaukee police spokeswoman Anne E. Schwartz says it's not clear why so many people showed up to the office.People apparently thought they could get free food vouchers, but the center was just taking names for vouchers for people with flood damage to their homes.Authorities report that a fight broke out about 7 a.m. with shoving and pushing, and people taking a door off its hinges.Dozens of squad cars responded and restored order. Schwartz says there were no serious injuries and no arrests made.
