Excerpts:
Update (1230ET): In a very strange turn of events, TMZ is reporting that the frenzy could have been a targeted attack:
A source connected to Astroworld tells TMZ, someone in the crowd went crazy and began injecting people with some sort of drug, which caused panic and then a surge.
The source says authorities are trying to determine if those who went into cardiac arrest were the ones injected. We're told one of those who died is a 10-year-old.
The source says it appears to be a targeted attack.
We have not confirmed this report, but the source is a key person involved in the festival.
Footage from the event is disturbing...
