The Vancouver Sun reports that a 20-year-old guy has died “after he was dragged unconscious from a mosh pit” at a Smashing Pumpkins concert:
Vancouver police spokesman Const. Howard Chow said three or four young men dragged the victim out of the mosh pit toward security shortly after 9 p.m. Monday.
The victim was then taken to St. Paul’s Hospital, where he later died, Chow said in an interview tonight. […]
“It’s a challenge for police whenever we’re at events like this because of the lighting, because of the noise and because of all that’s going on,” Chow said.
Be careful out there, kids.
This happened in my own city and I hadn’t heard about it until now. Very sad!
