Friday's concert began with a stampede of people just hours before the show began. The sold-out, third-annual Astroworld Festival drew a massive crowd outside the perimeter of NRG Park prior to gates opening Friday afternoon, and some fans didn't wait to get in.
Multiple fans were trampled as hundreds rushed the event's perimeter Friday afternoon. Once inside, some people began climbing onto portable toilets as security personnel worked to try and contain the crowd.
1st lawsuit filed after 8 people died at Astroworld Festival
The lawsuit filed claims those responsible for the festival were negligent, and the victim is seeking for at least $1 million in damages.
