One Dutchman among 19 festival stampede dead

A 22-year-old Dutch student is among the 19 people killed in the stampede at the Love Parade music festival in Duisburg, Germany on Saturday.


German Chancellor Angela Merkel has demanded an ‘intensive’ investigation into the crush, which also left 340 injured.
The organisers have said there will be no more Love Parades and a criminal investigation into the disaster has been launched.
