Around 19 people were counted as casualties when a stampede erupted at the ongoing LOVE PARADE dance festival in Duisburg, Germany.  The police were trying to keep people from overcrowding but the crow panicked, chaos erupted and 19 were killed and a hundred more were left injured.  Police are currently investigating the cause of the stampede.

The government of the city sent out their condolences and promised to have a full inquiry regarding the tragedy. Despite this, the event went on not knowing about the casualty behind. The organizers said later on that the event will never happen again.

Now that is what we call human tragedy. They were passing a tunnel when all of a sudden people came trampling down one another until some have been stepped on and killed. Most of the people out there were youth, who traveled just to party with other young people, but instead, met instant death by trampling. 19 young people were crushed to death by party goers.

Police didn’t issued an order to evacuate the area and stop the festival because of the fear that it might cause more stampede and panic and produce more chaos and casualties.
