Just another case of a misleading headline… the people weren’t actually injured during the concert.
At least 14 people were injured and taken to hospital after trusses holding up the entrance to a resort where the Backstreet Boys were set to begin a concert collapsed.
WinStar World Casino and Resort said in a statement on Saturday that the resort began an evacuation at about 5pm (when lightning was within 4 miles of the venue). Apparently, about 150 people did not evacuate and “the storm hit and knocked over the concert entrance trusses with 70 [to] 80 mile an hour winds and heavy rain,” – The Casino
“Unfortunately, due to damage sustained in the storm earlier this evening, we are unable to perform the show tonight. Safety is always #1. Keep your tickets because, Backstreet WILL BE BACK!” – Kevin Richardson (Backstreet Boys)
