Travis Scott should have paused Astroworld Festival performance, Houston Fire Chief says

Houston Fire Chief Samuel Pena appeared on the "Today" show Tuesday where he updated the public on the investigation into the deaths at Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival.

"Look we all have a responsibility, everybody at that event has a responsibility, starting with the artist on down," he told Savannah Guthrie.

The Fire Chief noted that it is merely his opinion that "the artist has control of the crowd" and that the official investigation will determine any culpability on the part of Scott, the event’s organizers or the venue. However, he believes the rapper could have been more instrumental in helping first responders and security regain control and respond to victims.
