At least four fans have died in Bengaluru due to injuries suffered during stampede-like conditions around the Chinnaswamy Stadium, where the RCB players were being felicitated for winning the IPL for the first time in 18 years.

“People were supposed to witness RCB’s IPL victory celebrations. The tragedy and death have brought deep pain and shock,” Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar said on social media. “My condolences to the deceased. My condolences to their family. Let there be pride, but not bigger than life. I appeal to everyone to please stay safe.”
