Travis started it in 2018 and the second edition which was bigger and better took place in 2019. It was not held in 2020, due to the Covid-19 breakout, and hence this year the fans expected something exciting and magical.

On 5th November, Friday night, the incident took place when the fans surged towards the stage. It created huge turmoil and the crowd at the back when surged forward, resulting in trampling and stampeding those at the front. Panic was induced as a result.

Eight people were reportedly told to have lost their lives in this incident and many were left injured. All this happened when Travis Scott was performing. As per a lot of reports, Travis has been faced with multiple lawsuits from the injured ones, stating that he did not take any action when all of the turmoil was happening.

The victims’ ages are found to be in the range of 14-27 years old. The wounded ones are reportedly around 25 from which one is a 10-year-old girl, whose condition is said to be in critical condition. A concertgoer Jeffrey Schmidt told CNN that it was a fight for the survival of their lives rather than a concert.

He further added that he was the eyewitness to several people being unconscious and facing trouble in breathing. A lot of people were under my feet being trampled by thousands, crying for help, and I couldn’t help them. This is the most traumatizing experience of his life, that he could not help people around him. 

The Brother of a victim shared his deep anger on Facebook in a post stating that it was Travis who provoked those people and called them to jump on the stage. He also said that he and his family will not spare Travis and will go all their way to ensure justice is done.
