More than 150 people were injured in Seoul due to a stampede during the Halloween celebration.
Eyewitnesses publish terrifying footage on social networks. The crowd of 100,000 in the square heard that a famous person was spotted in one of the bars. The group started to move uncontrollably, which caused a stampede.
Dozens of people suffered cardiac arrest, and the authorities have not officially announced the number of dead, but local mass media report about 60 victims. More than 100 teams of doctors worked on the city streets and performed heart massages on the victims right on the sidewalk; many were hospitalized.
