People are still being carried away on stretchers in Itaewon. Bystanders say there was a massive crowd and people got trapped. Truly horrific. This should have been a fun Saturday night out but it’s ended in tragedy
From where I’m standing it looks like at least 20 bodies under a blue tarpaulin on Itaewon’s Main Street next to the Hamilton Hotel
Emergency services sprinting down the street, non stop ambulances. Stunned crowds still in Halloween costumes
A friend told me he was in Itaewon last night and the crowd was so large he was pinned in and could only move in one direction. Too early to say what happened here tonight but it seems like crowd control went very wrong
Just saw a medic giving CPR to someone on a stretcher going up the street. This incident is still unfolding #Itaewon #Seoul
Police are trying to clear Itaewon but I think a lot of people are confused and may have just arrived. Still big crowds in Halloween costumes
