[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3668309, member: 8862"] [B]EDIT for updated story Nov 11, 2021:[/B] The Houston police chief now "walks back" claim that security guard was injected in the neck. Report says the guard was apparently hit in the head; they believed he had been injected based on a mark on his neck. [URL unfurl="true"]https://nypost.com/2021/11/11/police-chief-astroworld-guard-not-pricked-in-neck/[/URL] A crowd of 50,000 went to an outdoor music festival in Houston Friday (supposed to run for 2 days), people knocked down fences and metal detectors to get in. Fire chief says around 9:15 p.m. Friday, a mass of people "began to compress" in front of the stage. Houston police chief said a security guard was apparently jabbed in the neck with a syringe which was suspected to contain an opioid drug; security guard was administered Narcan. Police chief said there were "several, many" instances of concert goers being treated with Narcan in the incident. 11 of 25 people taken to hospitals were in cardiac arrest, 300 people were treated at a field hospital set up at the scene. The deceased range in age from 14 to 27. Autopsies are pending and the second day of the festival has been cancelled. One unnamed source "close to concert organizers" told the NY Post they believe all the victims were in one area and may have been stuck with needles against their will.
