Travis Scott Sued By Injured Fan Over ‘Preventable’ Astroworld Tragedy That Left 8 Dead
Travis Scott is facing the first of what could be many lawsuits related to the frightening incident at his Astroworld music festival that lead to eight deaths and hundreds of injuries. Manuel Souza, who was hurt during the crowd surge at the November 5 event held at NRG Park in Houston, Texas, filed a lawsuit against the 30-year-old rapper in Harris County District Court on Nov. 6, according to People. The court docs reportedly show that Souza is suing Travis for $1 million and is also seeking a temporary restraining order from a judge to prevent destruction of evidence. Live Nation, ScoreMore, and Cactus Jack Records are also reportedly named in the lawsuit, which calls the Astroworld incident a “predictable and preventable” tragedy.
