After an uplifting week ... a complete disaster.
Houston Fire confirms at least 8 people are dead after being injured at #ASTROWORLDFest. About 17 people were taken to the hospital in cardiac arrest. Authorities say it all started when more than 50,000 festivalgoers rushed towards the stage trampling some. πΈ: @abc13houston pic.twitter.com/Afk0HbzvJn

The day starting badly was a portent.
As we were arriving to the Astroworld Festival at NRG Park right at 2:00, a stampede burst through the gates. Hundreds of people destroyed the VIP security entrance, bypassing the checkpoint. People were trampled. Some were detained.

People were really jumping on the cars of security personnel when they were trying to get to unconscious people in the crowd. This shit is disgusting. Look at these weirdos. #ASTROWORLDFest pic.twitter.com/Ctc0cvgBUV

Footage captured at Astroworld shows two concertgoers trying to get the cameraman's attention to warn them of people being trampled during Travis Scott's performance. The cameraman filming Astrofest avoids them entirely.#astroworldfestival #AstroWorld #ASTROWORLDFest pic.twitter.com/zdBrUAuLST

Disturbing part is him saying “who told me to stop” “you know what you came here to do”. #ASTROWORLDFest pic.twitter.com/K6KfIz8cOo
