At least 11 people, including two children, have died and dozens more were injured in a stampede during celebrations of Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s first IPL title victory in southern India.
Hundreds of thousands of fans had gathered outside their home team’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru in Wednesday despite a lack of clear organisation or police presence, with the stampede taking place after RCB’s official X account announced a victory parade with less than two hours’ notice.
