Jessie J Concert Stabbing: Fan in Serious Condition
Quote:
A concertgoer is in critical condition after being stabbed in the neck at a Jessie J gig. According to NME, the incident occurred around 11:40PM at Pulse nightclub in London just after Jesse had finished a high-energy set.
The show, sponsored by Blackberry, was filled with young fans, reality stars and rappers in order to promote the phone company's consumer division. However, the night didn't go as planned.
"Everyone tried to leave at the same time but the organizers weren't geared up for it and there was a huge rush to get to the cloakroom," London's Channel 4 correspondent Benjamin Cohen reports. "People were crying and quite a lot were being sick, whether from the blood or the alcohol."
During the rush to the doors, a man in his 30s was stabbed in the neck with a broken beer bottle. Officers have since arrested one unidentified man while questioning others until 2AM at the club. The victim is currently in critical condition at a London area hospital.
