Credit: Reuters/Rene Werner By Tom Kaeckenhoff DUISBURG | Sat Jul 24, 2010 9:19pm EDT DUISBURG Germany (Reuters) - A stampede killed 18 people after mass panic broke out in a tunnel at a "Love Parade" techno music festival in Germany on Saturday. Overcrowding at the entrance tunnel to a former freight rail station where the event was being held sparked the stampede and then a crush among the mainly young festival-goers, police said. The festival, which police said drew about 1.4 million people, was not immediately canceled because authorities feared an abrupt halt could spark a second panic. Music blared out after the stampede and people danced on, unaware of the unfolding tragedy nearby. Organizers finally called the event off in late evening hours after the deaths. "There were piles of injured on the ground, some being resuscitated, others dead and covered with sheets," 18-year-old Love Parade participant Isabel Schloesser told Reuters. "It was way too full in the afternoon, everybody wanted to get in," she said after leaving the rubble-strewn entrance where echoes of a throbbing bass beat could still be heard more than three hours after the crush. Rescue work was initially hampered by the huge crowds attending one of Europe's biggest electronic music events in fine weather, officials said. People had come from all around Europe to the Love Parade, most in the 18-25 age bracket. Police in the industrial Ruhr city of Duisburg in western Germany had tried to close the tunnel entrance about a half an hour before the chaos broke out in late afternoon. "Apparently some tried to enter the area by climbing a fence along a ramp and then fell," the head of an emergency task force, Wolfgang Rabe, said on ARD television. "It is still a presumption at the moment, but this could have caused a panic." SUFFERING, PAIN FOR REVELLERS North Rhine-Westphalia state interior minister Ralf Jaeger arrived at the scene in the evening and said 5,500 police and emergency workers had been mobilised to organize evacuation and an orderly end to the festival, which left thousands in a state of shock. German President Christian Wulff expressed sympathy in a statement and Chancellor Angel Merkel sent a message of condolence to the relatives of the victims. "These young people went to party and instead found death and injury. I am appalled and saddened by so much suffering and pain," her statement said. Authorities put the death toll at 18, with at least 80 more injured, many severely. No further details were immediately available about the dead, which earlier police reports said included nine women and six men. A doctor from the nearby Johanniter hospital told Reuters some 20 to 30 more people were badly injured. Police earlier tried to resuscitate some with CPR and the kiss of life inside the 200-meter long tunnel. In the direct aftermath, ambulances rushed to pick up victims and police set up an emergency first aid station near the entrance, where live images from WDR television showed thousands of revelers streaming out of the festival toward the main train station as rescue helicopters circled overhead. "The emergency workers had problems getting to the area due to the massive crowds," a fire department spokesman from Duisburg said, declining to be named. The annual event with a backdrop of electronic dance music such as House, Trance and Techno, flamboyant outfits and energetic dance moves, was first held in Berlin in 1989 as an event to promote peace through music. Internationally, similar Love Parades have taken place in Zurich, San Francisco, Mexico City, Acapulco, Vienna, Cape Town, Tel Aviv, Sydney, Santiago, Rio de Janeiro, Oslo and Budapest. Organizers could not immediately be reached for comment. Police said an investigation had already begun. World Germany Comments See All Comments (4)  |  Post Comment Jul 25, 2010 12:11am EDT It is amazing that a person going to an event – any event, can step on another fellow human just to get in the door. This illustrates the savage nature of the ’sophisticated’ human race. It’s insane and criminal all at the same time. RCMEDIA Report As Abusive     Jul 25, 2010 12:44am EDT I am a Hispanic that has attended many tea party events and I can assure you I have only felt like an american speaking her mind and have been treated as such in every event. I can also assure you that I have never seen any drugs or alcohol at the events I have attended. I simply wish that my minority brothers were able to consider themselves americans first.Don’t let them devide us by race. Now for the cheap shot on Beck and Limbaugh, at least they have come out and admitted their mistakes, dusted themselves off and gone on to be better men. truetoonesself Report As Abusive     Jul 25, 2010 2:13am EDT @rcmedia – I think until you are in a situation like this you cannot judge others. I assume the people at the back of the crowd had no idea what was going on at the front. And the people at the front had no place to go. This type of thing happens all the time at large gatherings. I’m amazed that 1.4 million 18-25 year-olds can get together and less than two dozen die. It doesn’t diminish the pain and agony felt by those involved, but it certainly shouldn’t be seen as evidence of some cruel or evil nature in human beings. After all, we’re just animals. hummel Report As Abusive     Jul 25, 2010 3:33am EDT rcmedia – you’ve clearly never been in the middle of a panicking crowd. You can’t control its movements. It is pure madness. Trying to stop it is impossible. All you can do is steel yourself as it surges this way and back. All you can think is “don’t fall down”. In my case I tried to pull those who fell down back to their feet because those still standing could do nothing to keep from trampling. Others tried to do the same. Think before you speak! ericvz Report As Abusive       See All Comments (4)       Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
