Two people were killed and a third injured after one of the spectators fell from the seventh floor of a concert hall in Sweden into the crowd below, a police spokesman confirmed to CNN on Wednesday (3rd).
The incident took place on Tuesday night, about 30 minutes before an Abba tribute concert began at 7:30 pm local time, the spokesman said.
About 1,000 people gathered at Uppsala Konsert and Kongress in the town of Uppsala, about 70 kilometers north of the capital, Stockholm, for the concert, according to police.
Just before the start of the show, an 80-year-old man fell from the seventh floor on top of two other people, a 60-year-old man and a woman. The fall hit people in the open ground floor lobby, police said.
The two men died and the injured woman was taken to a hospital. She is not at risk of death, according to police, who are investigating what exactly happened and why the person fell.
The three victims have not yet been identified by the police.
