Eight people were hospitalised – with four in a critical condition – after crowd control issues occurred during a show by Asake at the Brixton Academy in London last night.According to reports, a large number of people turned up at the London venue without tickets for last night’s show, the final of three sell out performances by the afrobeats artist at the Academy. Ahead of the first of those shows on Sunday, a post on Asake’s Twitter profile urged fans without tickets to stay away, confirming that no additional tickets would be on sale on the night.As a large crowd started to build up outside the venue yesterday evening – and with the particularly cold weather in London at the moment – some of those without tickets allegedly tried to force their way into the Academy building, which is thought to have resulted in a crowd crush, in turn resulting in multiple injuries.
Eight people in total were hospitalised, four with serious injuries.Police were quickly on the scene, Brixton Police Station being just across the road from the Academy. As officers and venue staff sought to deal with the crowd issues the show itself was abandoned and gig goers were asked to leave the building.A statement issued by police this morning confirmed that “detectives are investigating the circumstances which led to four people sustaining critical injuries in Brixton”, adding that they were called to the Academy at 9.30pm last night “following reports that a large number of people were attempting to force entry to the venue”.“Officers, London Ambulance Service and London Fire Brigade attended and found a number of people with injuries believed to have been caused by crushing”, the statement then confirmed.
