Cruz attended the concert with a group of friends, including Brianna Rodriguez, who was among the eight killed in the stampede. The teen said he wanted to go search for them amid the pandemonium, but that there was no time. He said someone then picked his girlfriend up and carried her to another area of NRG Park, where she later asked him if he had seen their friends, including Rodriguez. I heard her asking for help and saying that she can’t breathe,” he told KHOU, adding that he was unable to help her and thought he was about to die in the chaos. She talked about how excited she was to see Drake. “She was enjoying herself the entire festival up until that moment. The music was going and people were jumping and dancing.”Ĭruz also described the moment his girlfriend fell to the ground. He continued: “And as the people, the first layer of people, fell down … we ended up falling down on our backs and people ended up falling on top of us. “It took me a long time to get out before I could even get to the cameraman.” “At that point, fear has hit already my heart,” Cruz said.

We were actually towards the back,” he told the station. “It really wasn’t a mosh pit where we were. I thought I had it all down.”Ĭruz said he and his pals were near the back of the crowd when he suddenly felt the force of the surging crowd pushing them to the ground. “I tried my best to avoid all danger zones. I know the vibes and this shouldn’t have happened,” the student told KHOU.
