Shooting at Indianapolis concert-lack of security some say
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Aug 21 2017— Late Saturday night, authorities responded to an incident at the NBA Youngboy concert at the Old National Center.
The show started at 9 p.m. in the Egyptian Room. Witnesses say sometime after 11:30 p.m., people in the crowd started pushing up on the stage, and there weren’t enough security guards to handle it.
As a result, people were hurt, and witnesses say people were taken out on stretchers, including reports of an injured security guard.
The concert was then cancelled, and the concert-goers were told to leave.
That’s when, shortly after, a 23-year-old male is shot outside of the building.
Police say he is shot in the foot, and is expected to be okay.
The investigation is ongoing.
