Stampede Kills 145 in India
This happened at a remote mountaintop temple in northern India. Thousands of pilgrims were there during celebrations to honor a Hindu goddess. Suddenly they stampeded on Sunday and dozens of people fell to their deaths and many more were trampled. The police said 145 were killed in all. I guess there had been rumors of a landslide that started the panic. Pilgrims began running down the narrow path leading from the peak and ran into others coming up. It was a horrible incident all around. So sad.
