More than 100 young people have been treated by paramedics for the effects of alcohol and, in some cases drugs, at a concert in Belfast. They were attending a DJ Hardwell gig at the Odyssey Arena. A charity worker who helped to treat people at the scene told the BBC it was "like a disaster zone". Three of the 19 people who were hospitalised came from inside the Odyssey Arena Police are investigating and are to meet Odyssey management. They arrested three people and seized a small quantity of drugs outside the venue. Sources said police will also investigate claims that many underage teenagers were able to buy alcohol as well as being allowed in while clearly drunk. Ten thousand tickets were sold for the event, and police said about 300 young people were refused entry to the venue because they were either underage or intoxicated. A total of 108 people, including some very young teenagers, needed medical help both inside and outside the venue. The Northern Ireland Ambulance Service (NIAS) declared the scene outside the concert as a "major incident" at about 20:00 GMT on Thursday. They said this was due to the number of resources they had to deploy in order to treat the patients. What the **** is up with young people nowadays? They keep on dieing from M-Kat and pills, they throw up after a few drinks and are generally ****s.
The poor youth of Northern Ireland aren't used to drinking the contents of glass bottles . They usually just use them as missiles during some riot or another . This was an accident waiting to happen to be honest .
Am getting to the age where I see young people everywhere when I'm in a club, combined with the grey hairs I'm definitely in the process of turning into ER (I've still got a good few decades before I'm anywhere near as bad as him). These ****y teenagers are keeling over every week, I blame the parents.
