A performance by pop band Mirror was called off after two dancers were badly injured when they were hit by a huge LED screen that had fallen from the ceiling.
The incident was captured on camera (see clip below) and shows the LED screen hitting one dancer directly on the head and body, before toppling over on to another performer.
The two performers were rushed to the hospital. One has sustained a head injury, but is in a stable condition, the other received a neck injury, and is reportedly in a serious condition.
“I have never felt this terrible going to a concert. Walking out of the Coliseum felt like walking out of a funeral home. It was somber, no one was talking,” one audience member who witnessed the incident told Variety. “Some other girls among the audience were crying. Another friend, who’s a mother, questioned why such a horrible, unacceptable incident could happen in Hong Kong, at the Coliseum.”
