67 year-old woman dies at Glastonbury; young man fighting for life

A 67 year-old woman has died at Somerset’s Glastonbury Festival, whilst another reveler has been left fighting for his life, according to reports.

The Western Daily Press have revealed that the two cases are unassociated with each other; with the 67 year-old lady passing away from natural causes, whilst the young 26 year-old male is apparently in critical condition following a reaction to a ‘class B substance’. The man’s family have been informed and he is currently being treated at Bristol Royal Infirmary.

Accordingly to the forces, crime is currently at a record low this year, with police arrests standing 50% less than the 2013 event, currently standing at 12, however police have warned attendees to remain vigilant; the Thursday of the Festival is usually known as the busiest day for crime.

In other Glastonbury-related news, Twin Atlantic are to replace Chromeo this weekend, after the Canadian duo pulled out of their appearance at the last moment. An official statement has yet to be released. Meanwhile Ricky Wilson’s Kaiser Chiefs have been confirmed as the ‘mystery act’ to take to Worthy Farm’s Other Stage tomorrow to open festival proceedings.
