AceShowbiz –Kenny Chesney has been left “devastated” after a fan fell to her death at one of his concerts. The 54-year-old star admitted it was “heartbreaking” to be told a woman had passed away from her injuries after she plunged from an escalator at the Empower Field at Mile High stadium in Denver towards the end of his show on 30 July.
“I was devastated to learn of the loss of someone after our show,” Chesney told The Denver Post July 31. “There had been so much joy, so much heart coming from the people of Denver [at the show] – and to hear this is heartbreaking. Life is precious. Sharing music brings us together and that love we share makes us so much more.”
“For the lady who came to share that love, there are no words. For her friends and family’s loss, I grieve with them and for them,” he added.
According to Denver police spokesperson Nate Magee, the woman was sitting on the railing of the escalator when she fell. However, he was unsure of specific details about her death, including how far she fell or if she died at the venue or later in hospital.
However, he doesn’t think there was any foul play involved. He said, “To my understanding, there was none of that. It was just an accidental fall, I don’t think anyone pushed her or anything like that.”
