A 22-year-old Texas A&M student injured at Astroworld has no brain activity, family says
A 22-year-old Texas A&M student was on a ventilator Tuesday and has shown no sign of brain activity after she was injured during Friday’s Astroworld Festival, according to her family.
As reported by ABC13, Bharti Shahani attended the show with her sister, Namrata Shahani, and her cousin, Mohit Bellani. The three were separated from each other after the crowd began to surge.
“Once one person fell, people started toppling like dominos. It was like a sinkhole. People were falling on top of each other,” Bellani told the station. “There were like layers of bodies on the ground, like two people thick. We were fighting to come up to the top and breathe to stay alive.”
Bharti was brought to Houston Methodist after the concert, where is she currently “fighting for her life,” according to the her sister’s post on GoFundMe.
