Causes of Death Released for All 10 Astroworld Victims
The tragedy that took place last month at Travis Scott‘s Astroworld festival resulted in the deaths of 10 individuals, and now, the Harris County Medical Examiner’s office has confirmed the causes of death in each of those victims.
If you are not aware, 10 died and hundreds were injured in the mass casualty event that took place in early November at the concert. The audience surged towards the stage during the 30-year-old rapper’s performance, leading to a stampede in the crowd due to the mass panic.

The Harris County Medical Examiner’s office released a report on Thursday (December 16) and said that each death was an accident and the cause was determined to be “compression asphyxia.” In addition, the AP reports, “Medical examiners said contributing factors in one man’s death were cocaine, methamphetamine and ethanol, a form of alcohol.”
Travis recently broke his silence on the tragedy and says he did not hear the cries for help during his set.
