Astroworld: Countdown to Tragedy – The Path to Peace for Concertgoers
HOUSTON – Nov. 5, 2022 will mark one year since the deadly tragedy at Travis Scott’s Astroworld Festival. Ten people died, others seriously injured, and many witnesses to the disaster are still dealing with the mental toll from that day.
“I just feel like, what would my life be like had it never happened,” said Ayden Cruz, an 18-year-old who tried to stop the concert. “It just left me with so many questions that I don’t feel like a lot of young adults like me know how to answer…it’s definitely impacting my life completely, you know, changed.”
On Monday, Oct. 31, KPRC 2 Investigates talks with concertgoers, some who were in the midst of the most dangerous area, about the warning signs and the path to peace.
