He further wrote:
A few hours later, Basil shared details of Danish Baig’s funeral, which is to be held at the Colleyville Masjid on November 7, Sunday.
Meanwhile, Scott has issued a statement
A troubled Scott took to his Instagram stories to issue an official statement on the deadly incident on Saturday night. In the videos, he said he wanted to “send prayers” to those that passed away while acknowledging that he didn’t quite understand the “severity of the situation.”
The fest was sold-out and had 50,000 attendees. Franco Patino, Rudy Pena and Brianna Rodriguez were among those killed.
Aside from the crowd surge, Houston Chief of Police Troy Finner noted that drugs and needles could have been involved. On Saturday, he told members of the press that a man was reportedly injecting people. An investigation is underway.
