Music, News

Four people were hospitalized after a steel stage barricade collapsed at Bumbershoot Music & Arts Festival on Saturday night, CNN reports. The Seattle Fire Department said that 25 people were evaluated for injuries and four were transported to the Harborview Medical Center in stable condition. Bumbershoot categorized the injuries as “non-life threatening” in a statement.

The incident took place during Jai Wolf’s performance, which was cut short by police. “As soon as I walked on stage tonight, one of the steel barricades separating the crowd from the stage collapsed due to the crowd pushing and jumping on the hill,” Jai Wolf wrote in a statement. “I cut the music because I noticed members of the audience had fallen on top of each other.” Jai Wolf has rescheduled his performance for tonight.
