Korn Release Statement Regarding Death of Fan At Concert
Korn has released a statement regarding the death of a fan at the hands of other fans. Andy Richardson was in attendance at Sundays Family Values Tour in Atlanta, GA with his pregnant wife and disabled son. During the Deftones set, Andy apparently asked some rowdy concert goers to not bump into his wife and son. A short time later, he had his face slammed into the concrete and later died from the injuries he sustained.
"All the bands on The Family Values Tour offer their sincerest condolences and prayers to the family of 30-year-old Andy Richardson. Richardson, who attended Sunday's show at Atlanta's Hi-Fi Buys Amphitheater, was beaten by two men at the concert and subsequently was taken to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries on Tuesday, August 1. The incident occurred during the DEFTONES set, before tour headliners KORN took the stage. KORN are appalled at the actions of these men and are imploring anyone who witnessed this or has any information about the attack to please immediately come forward by contacting local authorities."
