Kim Kardashian came out to support Travis Scott after eight were murdered in an altercation at the Astroworld Festival.

Astroworld is deeply sorry for all the lost lives and any injuries. Kim shared the following tweet: “Just like you all, our family was shocked by this tragedy.” 

“We will keep all the families, victims and loved ones affected in our prayers for healing. Travis is also included as we know he cares deeply about his fans.

Scott, who is 30, shares a child with Kim’s sister Kylie Jenner (24), and is being sued for “inciting mayhem” at the Houston event which saw a boy of 14 years old and a girl of 16 years killed. 

Scott is being sued by furious family members of the victims. He performed the act for more than 30 minutes while people died and the crowd chanted, ‘Stop the show!’

A rapper who claimed he was devastated by the loss of loved ones, and that he couldn’t imagine anything similar, has been twice found guilty for encouraging his fans to leap security bars and rush the stage during previous concert performances. 

Kim rallies around Scott as follows:

Scott (aged 30), who has a daughter, Kylie Jenner (24) is being sued by Drake and Kim for inciting mayhem at an event that took place in Houston, which saw two 14-year old boys and one 16-year-old girl be killed.

After being hurt in the crowd surge, a nine-year-old boy was seated on the shoulders of his father at Astroworld Festival. He is now in a medically-induced coma. 

The father of a nine-year old boy dropped him as he was holding him over the crowd at Friday’s Astroworld Festival. Now, the boy is in an artificial coma that has severe damage to his brain, heart, and lungs.

Ezra Blount, one of the many concertgoers who were injured in the stampede at Travis Scott’s show, was also hospitalized. 

Treston, the boy’s father drove him from Dallas to visit one of his favourite artists. The father-son outing turned quickly into a disaster. 

'Due to his severe injuries which are swelling in the back of brain damage and trauma to nearly all organs we are certain that he was trampled and is still in induced coma,' Treston Blount (left) wrote on a GoFundMe initiative for his son Ezra (right), which has raised nearly $7,000 in just 3 hours

Treston Blount wrote that his injuries, which include swelling from brain damage and trauma almost all of the organs, made it certain that Ezra was injured and remains in an induced coma. He created a GoFundMe campaign for Ezra’s son and raised over $7,000 within 3 hours.

Treston claimed that he fell asleep while holding Ezra up so he wouldn’t be crushed. His son, Treston said, had just been admitted to a local hospital by himself as a John Doe when he reached the medical tent. 

Treston shared his thoughts on Treston’s GoFundMe campaign for his son. The initiative raised more than $7,000 in three hours. 

Drake, age 35, described it as a “devastating tragedy” in an Instagram posting last night, writing: “My heart breaks for the families of those who have lost their lives, and anyone else who is in pain.”

“I will keep praying for each of them, and I will do my best to be of assistance in any way that I can. All of you, may God bless.

Scott performed with him during the concert, which saw many people get hurt when they rushed to the stage.

Scott continues to sing as the limp bodies of his audience are carried above their heads and people beg them to quit. 

It was cancelled 30 minutes ahead of schedule but it was done half an hour later than the time that a mass casualty’ event had been declared.  

One video shows an ambulance trying to navigate through crowds, and taking over 10 minutes to get to the patient.

Additional footage captures Scott with his entourage, which rushes onto the stage to share their thoughts.

Scott turned to the crowd and said “Y’all know where you’re going,” before the music resumed.

Then he asked his companions in the crowd to give a ‘ground shake’. 

Scott and Drake are being sued by Kristian Paredes, 23, from Austin, Texas, who says he was left ‘severely injured’ after Drake ‘came on stage alongside Travis Scott and helped incite the crowd.’ 

Drake is accused of continuing to perform alongside Scott “as the crowd got out of control” and “while the crowd mayhem continued.” 

Paredes seeks $1million in damages for bodily injuries. Some of these injuries he says are permanent.

Scott from Houston offered to pay the funeral costs of the victims, and Live Nation promised full refunds to everyone.

The incident has been investigated by police and more than 12 lawsuits filed.

The families of eight victims were still trying to come to terms with Friday’s tragedy that saw people aged 14-27 crushed to death. On Friday, 50,000 people rushed toward NRG Park to witness the beginning of the performance.

Rachel was furious at Franco Patino’s passing, her 21-year old friend from Illinois who had been studying at University of Dayton.

She tweeted, “My friend is gone FOREVER due to Astroworld,”

The anger over it is mad. Travis Scott must do so much more than a note-app apology.

Ana Lissa Marie (a friend) was devastated by the passing of Jacob Jurinek (21) – a childhood friend of Patino.

Jurinek was a Southern Illinois University student in art and media. He had traveled with Patino from Southern Illinois University to Houston for Jurinek’s Birthday.

He said, “They must make these types of events change.”

“Today, it was me. 

‘I lost my son. Acosta suggested that it might have been you. 

You send your child to have fun. But, someone is not giving the right… The right security. You have the right security.

“Because it’s not the first time he has participated in large events.

“You can have fun at Disneyland. It’s possible to go to a ballgame and still have fun. Because of their security measures and because they employ the best people who can assist those in need.

“It is hard to explain.”

Axel Acosta (21), had traveled from Washington in order to be there – it was his first concert.

He added: ‘He was a great kid, excellent student. He had been trying to learn and go to school in order to become an engineer, or a programmer. 

Buzbee stated that his company is filing suits on behalf of 35 plaintiffs including Acosta.

Buzbee stated that neither Travis Scott, nor his entourage, manager, agents, managers, promoters or organizers cared enough for Axel. 

Buzbee cited a long list of lawsuits and allegations against Live Nation and described Scott’s criminal record, insisting that Scott had a reputation as putting on unsafe shows.

Travis Scott paid a $7,465 fine after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct for encouraging fans to rush the stage at a May 2017 concert in Arkansas

Travis Scott was fined $7,465 after pleading guilty in a misdemeanor case of disorderly conduct. He encouraged fans to rush to the stage during a concert held May 2017, Arkansas.

There was footage that showed several incidents in which people stampeded towards Scott in previous Lollapalooza performances in Chicago and Arkansas. Scott was found guilty of misdemeanors after both incidents.

Fan who fell from a balcony while attending a Scott concert 2017 was paralysed and has criticised the singer for risking his safety.

Kyle Green is represented by a lawyer. Green was 27 years old when he was hurt at Scott’s April 2017 concert at Terminal 5 New York City. Green said that he was heartbroken for the families who lost eight loved ones at Scott’s Friday night concert.

What a scene of chaos and death at Travis Scott’s concert! 

At around 2.15pmBefore the concert, video captured hundreds of people racing through gates at VIP security checkspoints and ignoring security.

This afternoon scrum resulted in at least one injury.

Houston Fire Chief Sam Pena admitted that he didn’t know what caused the rush, but stated that any extra precautions for this festival’s celebration ‘weren’t sufficient’.

According to The New York Times Police Chief Troy Finner visited Travis Scott’s set before he performed to share his concerns over the energy of the crowd.

Scott was to perform 9:00pmThe. His set was interrupted by a massive countdown timer that appeared on large screens 30 minutes in advance.

Madeline Eskins, an ICU nurse, stated that pressure in the crowd increased the closer it was to zero.

CNN’s She said that people were pushing each other forward and back, and they had been pressed together.

Just after 9pmScott took the stage in order to begin his set, which included Drake’s surprise visit.

People were already passing out by the time that the rapper entered the arena.

At 9.30pmPena reported that the officials were the first to report injuries.

At around 9.30pmThe ambulance made it into the crowd. It took 10 minutes for the ambulance to reach the patient.

Two men, who appeared to be Scott’s entourage, approach Scott onstage in video footage that has been removed.

Scott turned to the crowd and said “Y’all know where you’re going,” before the music resumed.

He asked then the thousands of people in front to do a “ground shaking”.

At 9.38 pmThe fire chief declared a “mass casualty” event.

Scott claims he didn’t know the gravity of the situation, but he stopped the program at least three times to request that the people in need get assistance.

At around 10.10pmThe performance was stopped. 

Green claims he was forced to fall over the edge from a balcony in the venue. He called it’severely packed’. Green broke several vertebrae, bones, and is now unable to walk without a significant and substantial disability.

Green’s attorney Howard Hershenhorn claimed that Scott was picked up by security ‘like potatoes’ rather than putting him in a neck brace or on the backboard.

Hershenhorn stated that Travis was more upset by it because he had learned from his mistakes and changed his approach about encouraging people to act recklessly.

Scott had also encouraged another spectator to leap off of the balcony at the 2017 show.

“I can see you but will you do it?” Scott asked. They’ll catch you. Be calm. Be confident.

One fan is heard saying “I don’t want to die here” in video.

Green sued Scott, Scott’s manager, Bowery Presents concert promoter and security company, six months after the incident, while Green was still in a wheelchair. This case remains pending.

The 29-year old Kylie Jenner was convicted of a misdemeanor count for reckless conduct in August 2015. This occurred after his supporters jumped over a barricade at Chicago’s Lollapalooza Festival.

According to the Office of Emergency Management, the performer performed one song before telling his fans to cross the barricades. The security team quickly responded and the situation was resolved immediately. No fans were hurt.

According to WLS, the performer fled from the scene and was soon arrested.

The barricade is being jumped by all my real ragers right now. Let’s move. “Come over,” he said to his 2015 fans as he urged them. I want chaos. There were hundreds of people seen walking towards the stage. However, no one was reported to have been hurt.

After encouraging his fans to rush onto the stage at the May 2017 concert at Rogers’ Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion, he was charged with disorderly conduct and pleaded guilty in February 2018. 

A week before, Scott’s fan in Manhattan claimed that he had pushed him over a balcony side-by-side after he asked for fans to hurry forward. He was then paralyzed. 

Kim’s sister Kendall Jenner (26-year-old model) also released a statement regarding the tragedy. 

On Instagram, she wrote: “I am still at a loss of words over the Astroworld news. It’s truly heartbreaking for those who lost loved ones. My prayers are with them all.

“Sending all those who have been touched my love, and sending them strength in this difficult and delicate time.” 

Kylie was at the festival, and stated that she and Scott didn’t know what was going on in the crowd.

At 2pm, hundreds stormed into the VIP area of the festival. Seven hours later, eight were killed by a crowd in front the main stage. The two incidents appear unrelated

On Friday, approximately 50,000 people attended Astroworld Festival at NRG Park. Witnesses claimed chaos broke out when Scott performed. 

The surge took place at 9:15 PM. At that point, the’mass causalty incident’ was officially declared. The concert was stopped by Live Nation at 10.10 p.m. 

On Friday night, hundreds of people were captured rushing through the VIP entry at Live Nation’s event. This raised concerns about crowd control and overcrowding. 

Scott, 29 years old, continued performing after eight victims were killed, including two children aged 14 and 16. Scott was part of a “floor” that witnesses described as an endless stream of dead bodies. 

Video circulating on Twitter shows fans chanting ‘stop the show’ as concertgoers were being knocked down and crushed by other attendees.  

Scott did his 75-minute show, but at one point he was recorded calling out for help. Another video shows him standing on a platform while chaos was unfolding below.

The chaos continued and the rapper finished his performance. He even glanced in the direction passed out fans while the show was going on. Scott stopped the show at least once and called for security assistance to those in distress. 

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner revealed during a press conference Saturday that the dead ranged in age from 14 to 27. The cause of their deaths has yet to be determined.  

Scott’s girlfriend Kylie Jenner (pregnant with their second child) was also present at the event. However, she was criticised online after posting footage of an ambulance caring for the wounded and the dead during the chaos.  

However, other video clips from that night show distraught fans begining concert staff to stop their performance and rescue them from this surge.

‘People are f***ing dying, I want to save somebody’s life,’ a man said as he climbed on a platform where a cameraman was filming the performance.
