4 People Injured After LED Display Fell at Site of Ultra Music Festival: Miami Fire-Rescue
Four people were injured, two critically, after a LED display that hung from a stage at the site of the Ultra Music Festival fell Thursday night, Miami Fire-Rescue said.
Two people were trapped after the lighting display fell in Bayfront Park, while debris hit another person, Miami Fire-Rescue spokesman Lt. Ignatius Carroll said.
Firefighters were able to free the trapped people and rushed them to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center, where they are in critical condition, Carroll said.
He said the LED display, about 30 feet wide, crashed at about 7:50 p.m. on the stage at the south end of the park. It is one of two main stages for the festival, which is scheduled to begin Friday.
Authorities initially reported that a stage collapsed.
Construction was almost complete on the stage where the incident occurred, but all operations and activities were suspended there Thursday night. Authorities and promoters will discuss the status of the stage on Friday, Carroll said.
One person who was injured refused treatment on the scene, Capt. Bill Christopher told NBC News.
The 2013 festival is due to begin Friday, with its first weekend running through Sunday, to be followed by a second weekend Friday, March 22 through Sunday, March 24.
