5 teens and a mum killed in rap gig crush

-

FIVE teenagers and a mother were trampled to death in a stampede at a nightclub rap concert.

Thirteen others were seriously injured after a pepper-like spray sparked panic on Friday night.

Three girls and two boys, aged 14 to 16, and a mother, 39, who was with her daughter, died in the horror in Corinaldo, on Italy’s Adriatic coast.

Witnesses claim one of the three exit doors was blocked as the 800 watching Italy’s top rapper Sfera Ebbasta tried to flee.

A balustrade also gave way. Interior minister Matteo Salvini said too many may have been packed into the club.
