Nineteen people were injured after a crowd stampede at an event in South Carolina early Sunday, May 24, Horry County Fire Rescue announced on social media.

Just after 1 a.m. local time, emergency crews responded to a "stage area" in Atlantic Beach, near South Carolina’s famed Myrtle Beach, following reports of a "stampede incident," Horry County Fire Rescue wrote in a Facebook post. The stage was part of the weekend-long Black Pearl Cultural Heritage and Bike Festival, an annual event that has taken place in the South Carolina coastal town for 40 years.
