“It happened all at once. It seemed like it just happened … over the course of just a few minutes,” said Houston Police Executive Assistant Chief Larry Satterwhite. “Within the first 30 seconds of the first song, people began to drown – in other people,” a concert-goer with the Instagram handle ‘Seannafaith’ wrote online. “It got tighter and tighter, impossible to breathe as our lungs were compressed between the bodies of those surrounding us. More people began to scream for help”.
