Man Critically Injured at Concert Venue New Years Eve
January 2, 2012
A 20-year-old man is in critical condition in a hospital in Broomfield, Colorado, after falling from the second floor of a venue he was attending a concert at New Years Eve. Colorado’s 9 News reported earlier today that the fall happened at around 1:15 in the morning at the 1st Bank Center.
Officers with the Broomfield police department said the young man was found just as the show was ending behind the main stage. Paramedics were on the scene and determined the man had suffered life-threatening injuries. They immediately transported him to the nearest hospital for treatment.
Detectives investigating the case have released little information about the incident other than interviews have been conducted with staff and security at the venue along with friends and family of the victim. A crime scene unit was called to the scene, suggesting foul play was possibly involved.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) say that of the hundreds of individuals who suffer form slip and fall accidents every year, 20-30 percent of them will suffer an injury. Also, unintentional falls account for 19,565 deaths every year in the United States.
