Country music star Kenny Chesney said he is "devastated" after an unidentified female fan fell and died just after the singer's show at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver on Saturday night.
"There had been so much joy, so much heart coming from the people of Denver last night — and to hear this is heartbreaking," Chesney, 54, said in a statement to The Denver Post on Sunday. "Life is precious. Sharing music brings us together and that love we share makes us so much more. For the lady who came to share that love, there are no words. For her friends and family's loss, I grieve with them, and for them."
The woman was sitting on an escalator railing when she fell to the concourse below and died as a result of her injuries, Denver police tweeted Sunday. They said the death was being investigated as accidental.
