HOUSTON - Several concertgoers at a Houston music festival have turned to attorney Ben Crump for representation after they were caught up in a pandemonium that left eight people dead and several injured.
Rapper Travis Scott was the headliner for the sold-out Astroworld Festival in NRG Park in Houston over the weekend, which was attended by an estimated 50,000 people.
The crowd suddenly surged toward the stage during a performance by Scott, squeezing fans so tightly together that they could not breathe or move their arms in the chaos.The dead ranged in age from 14 to 27, and 13 people were still hospitalized Saturday, Mayor Sylvester Turner said.
