Two Dead and Several Seriously Injured: The Tragic Toll of Shakira's Tour in Latin America

Colombian superstar Shakira's 'Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran Tour' in Latin America has faced relentless challenges from the start, including logistical and technical setbacks, as well as two cancellations—one due to the singer's unexpected illness.

Now there is a death toll and several injured.

After visiting Brazil and Peru, Shakira finally arrived in her beloved country, Colombia. She sang her heart out in Barranquilla and traveled to Bogotá, where she gave the same show, but far from what she planned and dreamed of, it was marked by blood. Once again!

According to several local media outlets, during the early hours of February 27, a bus carrying several attendees to Shakira 's concert at the Nemesio Camacho stadium in Bogotá collided with a van.

In the images captured by different people present at the scene, it can be seen that the van ran a stop sign and crashed into the public transport, leaving several people injured and a power pole collapsing.

Authorities in Bogotá reported that five injured people, including three minors, were taken to medical centers for examination.

At the moment, no deaths have been reported from the fatal accident, but a statement is expected from the authorities of the Colombian capital.

Dead in Peru

It is important to mention that what happened in Bogotá is not the first mishap related to the tour, Peru was also marked by a tragic accident. On February 17, two young people traveled to Lima to attend Shakira's show, which she later cancelled due to health problems.

The fans, upon learning of the rescheduling of the concert, decided to return home, but it was not possible for them. Unfortunately they died in a road accident before seeing their idol.

So far, Shakira has not issued any comments on the matter, only focusing on her "good and unforgetable" experiences on stage. In fact, on February 27th he offered another show at the same stadium which ended without incidents.
