14 People Hospitalized During the Chainsmokers’ Concert in San Jose
Over a dozen concertgoers required medical attention for "suspected alcohol intoxication and drug-related issues," authorities say
Fourteen individuals required hospitalization after The Chainsmokers' outdoor concert in San Jose, California on September 4th. Emergency services were alerted to a surge of medical calls at Discovery Meadow around 8:22 p.m. The San Jose Fire Department responded promptly, dispatching an ambulance task force, two advanced life support units, and a battalion chief to the venue.
A total of 14 ambulances arrived, transporting 14 people to local hospitals. The exact conditions of the hospitalized individuals remain undisclosed, and authorities have not confirmed if the medical incidents were related. Some concertgoers were treated for suspected alcohol intoxication and drug-related issues, though no arrests were made.
The 18+ event, organized by Insomniac and featuring Don Diablo, started at 5 p.m. and concluded at 10 p.m. Despite the incident, the event proceeded as scheduled, with The Chainsmokers performing at Encore Beach Club in Las Vegas the following day and Austin City Limits in October.
