At least nine people died in a stampede at a soccer stadium in El Salvador. Several injured fans were taken to hospitals near the Cuscatlán stadium in the capital San Salvador, the Central American country’s police said on Saturday (local time) via Twitter. At least two of the injured were therefore in mortal danger.
The newspaper “La Prensa Gráfica” from El Salvador described the panicked scrum on the sidelines of the first division game between FC Alianza and CD FAS as a “human avalanche” that led to the death of the nine fans. In order to facilitate the work of the rescue workers, the game was canceled. According to initial information from the police, the panic broke out when fans tried to get into the stadium.
