Soccer: Seven die in Stadium stampede
At least seven people were crushed to death and 51 injured when panicking crowds went on a stampede during a riot at a soccer match between two of the Congo’s top teams.
It was the second soccer tragedy in Africa this month. Forty-three fans died during a crowd stampede in South Africa on April 11.
