THREE young women died in a stampede at a nightclub at the weekend.
Five people, including the organisers of the event, were taken into custody after the tragedy in Hungary.

Thousands of people were caught up in the stampede. The victims are thought to have been trampled by the rushing crowd.

Police and medical investigators are working to determine the exact cause of the deaths. They have denied reports that the victims were stabbed.

Interior Minister Sandor Pinter said drugs had been detected in one of the young women. He added: "Human irresponsibility caused the deaths of the three victims."

The horror occurred on Saturday night at the West-Balkan nightclub in downtown Budapest.

The club is housed on several levels inside a communist-era shopping mall and office complex.

According to district officials, the venue was functioning without a full permit and was only allowed to operate until 10pm with a maximum capacity of 300 people.

An estimated 2,500 revellers were in the nightclub when the incident occurred just before midnight and 2,881 tickets had been sold, said organiser Night Noise Life.

Interior Minister Pinter said 4,000 tickets had been printed.

Family, friends and other mourners lit candles and laid flowers outside the club last night.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his wife, Aniko Levay, also lit candles at the scene.

Should always travel to the left in a crowd. Humans have a tendecy to always herd to the right. The same reason gracery stores are laid out with the freshest things on the right side of the store.

Very true as I am aware of that fact which is why I always go left when grocery shopping.
