There were around 4,000 potential witnesses present at the time of this incident and we urge any members of the public with information to come forward.

A further call was made at 21:35hrs reporting people were attempting to force entry into the venue. We have made a referral to the Independent Office for Police Conduct as is standard national practice following all incidents where police have been in attendance and members of the public have died or been seriously injured.
