10-15 Injured in Railing Collapse at Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa Show in NJ

 
Between ten and fifteen people suffered minor injuries following a railing collapse at a Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa concert on Friday night at the BB&T Pavilion in Camden, NJ. The accident happened around 10:30 p.m., and the concert was stopped shortly afterwards.

Immediately after the accident, some news outlets were reporting that up to 42 people were injured. However, Complex talked to a spokesperson for the Camden police department, who clarified the situation.

"All I have from my guys [on the scene] is about 10-15 injured, and almost all of them were just treated on the scene and released," said the spokesperson. "Maybe two or three to the hospital. I don't know the extent of their injuries, but I didn't gather it was super-serious. I think we're looking at bumps and bruises here."

Some concert-goers caught footage of the collapse and its aftermath.
