About 50 people from a range of nationalities were working to set up the structure, city sports official Richard Miron said. Up to a dozen people are believed to have been underneath the stage when the accident occurred.
The roof "started shaking and collapsing" gradually, said Marseille city councillor Maurice Di Nocera. "Since it did not collapse right away, that allowed several people to get out, to avoid being hit," he said.
Madonna, who is performing on her Sticky and Sweet tour, was in Udine, Italy, when she received news of the incident. Madonna issued the following statement: “I am devastated to have just received this tragicnews. My prayers go out to those who were injured and their Families along with my deepest sympathy to all those affected by this heartbreaking news.” The concert, planned for Sunday, was cancelled.
