Five Dead at Time Warp Festival in Argentina

Five attendees of Time Warp festival’s Argentina edition are dead after what is suspected to be acute poisoning via drug overdose, the BBC reports. Officials say that all five of the deceased were between the ages of 21 and 25, and that another five concertgoers are currently in critical condition. Doctors are still trying to determine what substances caused the poisoning. 

Buenos Aires emergency services shut down the electronic music festival after “private ambulances attending the event were unable to cope.”  Time Warp’s organizers have issued a statement, expressing their deepest consolations to the families of those lost and announcing the cancellation of the second day of the festival. Yesterday’s bill included Jamie Jones, Loco Dice, and Maceo Plex.
