What happened at AstroWorld Concert?
Hundreds were injured at the tragedy that struck the sold-out concert headlined by rapper Travis Scott, on November 5 in Houston.
According to reports, cries for help were heard around 9:30pm when exuberant concert-goers began pushing to move forward during Scott’s performance. Almost 50,000 people were present at the venue when the incident happened. Twenty five people were hospitalised and eight were confirmed dead on the spot.
It is considered one of the deadliest crowd-control disasters at a concert in the United States after the 1979 Who concert stampede that took 11 lives.
