Nine-year-old Ezra Blant is in an artificial coma after being injured at the Astroworld festival.
–
Ezra sat on his father’s shoulders during the concert, but as the crowd panicked, the boy fell to the ground and was beaten. Because of the crowds, the father lost his son and later learned that Ezra had been taken to hospital.
–
Ezra’s family said the boy had heart, lung and brain injuries.

The nine-year-old boy’s family has filed a complaint against Trevis Scott and the festival’s creators, alleging that their “gross negligence” contributed to the child’s life-threatening injuries. The complaint said Ezra was “kicked, beaten and almost crushed to death”.
–
It has already been reported that the incident took place on the evening of 5 November. The crowd began to push towards the stage and panic erupted in the audience, which, when several people fell, accepted.
–
Although emergency brigades were on duty at the concert venue, their strength proved insufficient as the number of victims increased. It is easier for the victims to get help in the field hospital, which is set up next to the concert venue.
–
Rapper Trevis Scott, who was on stage at the time, said in a social network statement that he was committed to working with the community of Houston to provide support to families in need. Scott’s beloved businesswoman, Kylie Jenner, who was at the festival’s venue, said she learned of the deaths only after the show and “would never have continued to perform and film it in her life.”
