How many people were injured in the Love Parade?
At least 18 people were killed Saturday when chaos broke out at a music festival in Duisburg, Germany, police said. (9) The panic at "Love Parade 2010" left at least 15 people injured, according to police spokesman Werner Friese.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel issued a statement offering her condolences to the victims’ families, saying "my sadness and empathy goes out to them. The young people came to celebrate; instead people were killed and injured. I am distraught and sad in the face of the suffering and pain."
Some 1.4 million people showed up at the popular festival, which features dozens of DJs spinning techno music for hours. Organizers expected only 700, 000 to 800, 000 attendees, so they opened an additional event site to accommodate more people.
The deadly crush happened in an underpass between the main event site and the expansion area. Witnesses said that people pushed into the tunnel from both sides until it was dangerously overcrowded. The panic began as festival-goers began to lose consciousness as they were crushed against the walls and each other.
After the panic, a line of emergency vehicles, including helicopters, could be seen parked on the highway leading to the festival site, carrying away people injured in the crush. The festival itself, however, went on. Police were afraid that ending the music altogether could cause further unrest among the massive crowd.
The Love Parade was first held in the German capital, Berlin, in 1989.
