The hardcore band Knocked Loose has donated $8,000 to a GoFundMe campaign set up for Jamie Ulshoffer, who was left paralyzed after a man fell from a tree during their performance at the Louder Than Life festival in Louisville last weekend. Ulshoffer's spine was reportedly severed, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. She was watching the band play from a side tent stage at the four-day rock festival when the incident occurred.
Knocked Loose is the top donor on the GoFundMe page, with their contribution bringing the total raised to approximately $28,000 out of a $40,000 goal. Ulshoffer, who is currently in a hospital ICU, told WHAS11 that she can no longer feel her feet and will not be able to do the things she used to, such as playing with her children.
Her husband Conor was also present at the festival and witnessed the incident unfold. Local police have stated that there will be no criminal investigation, as this is considered a civil matter. The Louder Than Life festival promoter, Danny Wimmer Presents, has confirmed that due to patient privacy, they are unable to provide any further details regarding the specific medical incident.
