At least 10 people were injured on Saturday afternoon after a fight between two people at the Kei Bailey Hachison Convention Center in Dallas, United States, where a National CheerLing competition was being held. The uproar began when the parents of the two students, who came to participate in the competition, started a debate and fight, knocking on several poles.
According to the Dallas police spokespersons, the sticks made a loud noise, making many people fear that they heard the gunshots, making them chaos and stampede during the NCA All-Star National Championship.
Law enforcement officials later confirmed that the fight was between adults and there was no “no active shooter” in the incident. However, in the crowd of leaving the site, people dropped each other down, causing stampede.
