Stampede After Mayweather Fight Leads To Numerous Injuries

It looks as though things got rough for some fans at the Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight this past weekend. The Clark County Fire Department reported that there was a stampede of people leaving the MGM Grand Arena.

Reports say a wall unit fell over creating a loud banging noise that some said sounded like a gunshot. This led to hundreds of people running out of the arena. Sixty people were treated for injuries; twenty-four had to be taken to area hospitals.
