Shanazia Williamson says she sustained "horrific injuries" resulting in the death of her unborn child.

A woman who says she suffered a miscarriage at the Astroworld tragedy is now reportedly suing rapper Travis Scott for wrongful death. In November 2021, 10 people died and hundreds were injured during Scott’s performance, when a crowd of 50,000 surged forward and crushed those at the front. Shanazia Williamson, along with her husband Jarawd Owens, filed a lawsuit against Scott and festival organisers Live Nation in December, claiming that the crush caused Shanazia to suffer a miscarriage. Due to current laws in Texas, where the suit has been filed, foetuses can be considered in wrongful death claims.

As reported by The Rolling Stones, the suit reads: "While in attendance at the festival, Shanazia was trampled and crushed resulting in horrific injuries and ultimately the death of her and Jarawd’s unborn child.

Eight people were originally killed as a result of the stampede toward the Astroworld stage, but in the days following the tragic event, two more deaths were recorded - including a nine-year-old boy.
