Wow, this is so unfortunate. Right before a Radiohead concert in Toronto, Canada, the stage collapsed. Injuring 3 people and killing one, the concert has since been cancelled. Hit the jump for details.
(CNN) — A stage in Toronto’s Downsview Park collapsed Saturday afternoon, minutes before spectators were set to begin streaming in to watch a concert by the alternative rock group Radiohead, police said.
Three people were injured, including one person who suffered injuries to the head, according to Toronto fire official Mike Strapko. The conditions of those injured were not immediately known.
The stage collapsed around 4 p.m., Toronto Police Service Constable Harrison Ford told CNN. The weather was good at the time, with no storm or significant winds, he said.
The concert — which was sold out and had been scheduled for Saturday evening — was canceled due to what the production company Live Nation Entertainment described as “unforeseen circumstances.”
“Radiohead concert canceled. There has been an incident, more details forthcoming,” said a post on Downsview Park’s official Facebook page.
The band was to be joined by the Canadian musician known as Caribou.
