ROCHESTER, NY. (THECOUNT) — GloRilla Stampede video Rochester: A report of gunfire sent hundreds of fans running for the exits causing at least one person to lose their life Sunday night in Rochester, New York during a GloRilla concert.
The Memphis rapper known as “GloRilla,” was performing at the Main Street Armory theater, when a large crowd pushed towards the exits following accounts of what was believed to be gunshots fired inside the venue Sunday night.
While “no evidence to support a shooting having occurred” was found, Rochester police lieutenant Nicholas Adams told ABC News, “the injuries appear to be as a result of a large crowd pushing towards the exits following accounts of individuals hearing what they believed to be gunshots,” reports Rolling Stone.
Police Chief David M. Smith reiterated the same findings during a news briefing Monday: “We do not have any evidence of gunshots being fired or of anyone being shot or stabbed at the scene.”
The one deceased attendee was a 33-year-old woman. Of the eight injured, seven people arrived at nearby hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, and two have been admitted in critical condition, the police department shared.
