Saturday evening, January 21, 10:30 p.m.
The Hyperweekend festival, a music festival organized by Radio France at the Maison de la radio, is in full swing with a concert by rapper Nes, when suddenly the music stops.
On videos posted on social networks, we see the spectators come to a standstill.
The rapper himself does not immediately understand what is going on in the pit.
In the middle of the crowd, dozens of people have just fallen 1.40 m.
The ground gave way under their feet.
According to the police headquarters, the slab gave way under the weight of the spectators, "while there was a pogo", tells Le Parisien, Cécile, witness to the scene.
Those present were quickly evacuated;
the emergency services and the police went to the scene.
12 minor injuries are to be deplored, according to the Paris police headquarters.
Radio France quickly communicated on its Twitter account: “Good evening everyone, in one of the spaces of the Maison de la Radio et de la Musique, a floor slab has collapsed.
For security reasons, the space is closed to the public.
Security services are on hand to make sure everyone is okay.
