Two dead and 18 injured is the initial result of a stampede that occurred early this Friday in the “Angelo Hernández” coleus manga, located in Santa Teresa del Tuy (Miranda), according to unofficial data.

Rescue personnel transferred the injured to the “Santa Teresita de Jesús” hospital, located on San Rafael street in the aforementioned town of Tuyera. The preliminary diagnosis says that “they presented general polytrauma, due to being run over by a multitude of people.”
