Angry fans throw chairs and bottles at Messi event in India
In an unexpected turn of events, chaos erupted at a promotional event featuring football superstar Lionel Messi in Kolkata, India, on Tuesday. As Messi was addressing the enthusiastic crowd at the local sports arena, a group of angered fans started hurling chairs and plastic bottles towards the stage, creating a scene of mayhem.
The commotion apparently stemmed from dissatisfaction among some attendees who felt that the event was poorly organized, with many unable to get a clear view of the football icon. The unruly behavior forced security personnel to intervene swiftly, escorting Messi safely off the stage and out of harm’s way.
In response to the incident, event organizers expressed regret over the disruption and assured fans that they would investigate the causes behind the incident to prevent such occurrences in the future. Local authorities have stated that they will be looking into the matter to identify those responsible for inciting the violence and ensure appropriate action is taken.
Messi himself has not made any public statements regarding the incident at this time. The Argentine footballer had been in India as part of a promotional tour for a well-known sports brand.
The unexpected outburst of violence at the Messi event has raised concerns about crowd management and security protocols at public gatherings, prompting organizers to review their strategies to avoid similar incidents in the future.
