Default JLS homecoming preformance ends in chaos

X FACTOR finalists JLS’s homecoming gig ended in chaos last night — as six teenage girls were crushed in a stampede.

Nearly 3,000 screaming fans had flocked to the free performance by the boyband four.

But the first-come, first-served event turned into disaster as youngsters were crushed against crowd barriers by people shoving to get in.

Paramedics and police rushed to the 2,000-seater Fairfield Halls in Croydon, South London.

Fan Amber Read, 13, said: “I couldn’t breathe — I was being crushed. It was terrifying.”

Steph Pritchard, 14, added: “It was chaos. People were on the floor but others were treading on them.”

One girl suffered a fractured hand, one had stomach injuries, and another had difficulty breathing.

Three other fans became unwell.

Two were taken to nearby Mayday Hospital for treatment.

JLS — Marvin, 23, JB, 21, Ortise, 21, all of London and Aston, 20, of Peterborough — face Eoghan and Alexandra in Saturday’s final.
