Chicago club had received court order to shut

YESTERDAY’s tragedy at Rhode Island was the second deadly US club disaster in four days. Twenty one people were killed and more than 50 injured during a stampede in a Chicago nightclub.

Monday’s deadly stampede at the nightclub was triggered when at least one security guard used pepper spray to break up a fight.

In the panic, revellers ran down a narrow stairway, and bodies were trampled and flattened.
