Another 1,649 people said they had injuries that required “less intensive medical treatment” – and another 2,540 said they had injuries that are still under review.

Here’s the thing… The document doesn’t exactly specify the criteria that characterize each injury category – it just provides raw stats. The details are supposed to be dissected at a later time.
In any case, the fact that they claimed that thousands of people were harmed as a result of what happened in Astroworld is shocking – especially since initial estimates were closer to 300 or 400, tops.
The case is still making its way through the system. As reported, Travis Scott and others have done so denied responsibility For tragedy in some amplitudes yet.
