A man who attended Travis Scott's 2017 concert and was left completely paralyzed has spoken out about the recent tragedy that took place at the rapper's Astroworld festival.
As reported by BBC News, panic ensued on the opening night of the Texas festival as the crowd rushed and pushed towards the front of the stage, emergency officials have said.
According to reports, eleven people were transported to hospitals in cardiac arrest as eight people tragically died. Some people were also treated on-site at the NRG Park, at the temporary field hospital.
Now, Kyle Green - who attended the Travis Scott concert at Terminal 5 in New York City in 2017 - has given his reaction to the tragic news.
Green, then 23-years-old, says he was pushed from a third-floor balcony during the show, leaving him paralyzed at the time.
His attorney Howard Hershenhorn shared his client's reaction to the sad news, telling Today: "He was extremely upset and sad for the devastation to these people and to their families - the people who were killed and the people who were horribly injured.
"At the same time, he was really angry at Travis and at Travis' team, including his security, etc., because Travis clearly hasn’t learned from what has previously transpired or what previously occurred. He hasn't learned."
Hershenhorn said Scott appears to incite violence lies within his own lyrics in his 2018 song 'Stargazing'.
He's heard rapping: "And it ain't a mosh pit if it ain't no injuries / I got 'em stage diving out the nosebleeds."
The event left Green, now 27, in a wheelchair after suffering injuries that included fractured vertebrae, a broken left wrist, and fractured right ankle.
He was left paralyzed on his left side, but has since regained some of his abilities and is now partially paralyzed.
In video taken from the April 2017 show, Scott can he heard encouraging another fan climbing down the balcony to jump, adding, "They going to catch you, don't be scared."
Earlier this week, Scott in a statement through his team said he would pay the funeral costs of those who have died, CNN reports.
The rapper - who is expecting his second child with Kylie Jenner - will also partner with the online therapy service BetterHelp to provide free therapy to those who attended his festival, according to the statement.
"Travis remains in active conversations with the city of Houston, law enforcement, and local first responders to respectfully and appropriately connect with the individuals and families of those involved," the statement said.
"These are the first of many steps Travis plans on taking as a part of his personal vow to assist those affected throughout their grieving and recovery process," the statement concluded.
Scott took to social media over the weekend, writing: "I'm absolutely devastated by what took place last night. My prayers go out to the families and all those impacted by what happened at Astroworld Festival."
