A 9-year-old boy who was hospitalized with severe injuries following the Astroworld music festival crowd surge has died from his injuries. Ezra Blount died Sunday at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, family attorney Ben Crump said in a statement.
"The Blount family tonight is grieving the incomprehensible loss of their precious young son. This should not have been the outcome of taking their son to a concert, what should have been a joyful celebration," the Blount family attorneys said in a statement."Ezra's death is absolutely heartbreaking. We are committed to seeking answers and justice for the Blount family. But tonight we stand in solidarity with the family, in grief, and in prayer.
Following Ezra's hospitalization, his family was one of the many who filed lawsuits against Scott and others involved in organizing and managing the music festival.In their statement, the attorneys added:"The attorneys previously filed a lawsuit, alleging negligence relating to crowd control, failure to provide proper medical attention, hiring, training, supervision, and retention, that contributed to Ezra's death.
