2 women now dead after New York concert ended in stampede
Two women are now dead and one remains in critical condition after a Rochester, New York, concert ended in a stampede Sunday night.
Two other women, Rhondesia Belton, 33, of Buffalo and Brandy Miller, 35, of Rochester, also died after being caught up in a crush of concertgoers who surged toward the exits after the show.
Police said the stampede may have been triggered by unfounded fears of gunfire.
The city revoked the venue's entertainment license on Wednesday while authorities investigate.
The armory's owner has not responded to numerous emailed requests for comment.
