A man fell to his death during Saturday night's Oasis concert at London's Wembley Stadium. The man, in his 40s, was reportedly sitting in the upper levels of the stadium, which seats 90,000 and features seats as high as 164 feet above the ground, the Guardian reports. Police say they were alerted to the situation at 10:19pm local time, the BBC reports. The man "was found with injuries consistent with a fall," authorities say, and was pronounced dead at the scene. In a statement, Oasis said members were "shocked and saddened" at the death of a fan. "Oasis would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved," the statement continued.

Police are asking anyone with information to get in touch, as authorities "believe it is likely a number of people witnessed the incident, or may knowingly or unknowingly have caught it on mobile phone video footage." One woman says she was directly underneath where the man was sitting, and initially thought a coat had fallen from an upper tier. "But then I looked and saw the bloke on the concrete. It was horrific to see," she wrote on social media. She watched as paramedics tried in vain to revive the man.
