BBC is reporting that nine people have been stabbed at the Swedish House Mafia concert in Dublin’s Phoenix Park, with two of the victims “seriously injured.” One 23 year-old man is in custody in conjunction with the stabbing, but investigations are ongoing to determine whether anyone else was involved. Concert promoters MCD are on record as saying that “ticket holders entering the site were subject to a search permissible by law,” adding that “every precaution… was taken to ensure the safety and security of the audience at all times.” CCTV footage from the grounds has also been handed over to police for further investigation.

As if the stabbings weren’t enough, the BBC report also states that a 20 year-old attendee died “from a suspected drugs overdose.” According to the outlet, he sought medical care on site but died later in a hospital. The victim has not yet been identified, so if you know anyone who went to the show — officials are advising friends and family to check that loved ones have gotten home safely.

This is clearly a massive tragedy, and we expect more information to continue flowing out as the story unfolds.

This is clearly a case of people stabbing themselves in the ears again. Happens at every SHM show. Their manager always finds some innocent guy to take the fall. What a waste of taxpayer money getting the cops involved.

Bad apples ing it up for everyone... the problem with like this is that it gets tied to SHM which then gets tied to EDM.

Same thing happened with Hiphop... just because you like a certain type of music doesn't mean you're automatically connected with the bad elements that also like that music. Don't fall into the same trap.

You should just preemptively stab anyone you see. You never know who may be a secret stabber.
