Jade Brooks, a 23-year-old dancer from Yorkshire, claims she fractured her knee in a crowd surge at the Boardmasters festival in Newquay, Cornwall.

The incident occurred on Friday when approximately 10 people fell on her during a crowd crush at The Point stage.

Brooks described the event as a 'disgrace,' criticizing the lack of effective crowd control.

Despite the presence of 'experienced pit management and security teams,' Brooks was directed to an overcrowded welfare tent and later confirmed her injury via an X-ray.

Security measures and medical support have been scrutinized following multiple injuries reported at the festival.

Devon and Cornwall Police confirmed a 'crowd collapse' but stated there were no fatalities.

Organizers assure comprehensive safety measures were in place.
