At the Electric Love Music Festival near Salzburg, Austria, one of its participants, a 22-year-old German citizen, died on Sunday night. This was announced on Sunday by the local police, which is investigating the cause of his death. TASR reports this based on APA and DPA reports.
The young man first behaved aggressively according to the media reports, as a result of which members of the security forces were summoned.

The circumstances of the death began to investigate the Criminal Department of the Salzburg police. It was immediately clear whether death was related to the aforementioned intervention of the security forces. In addition, the prosecutor’s office ordered an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
He also informed about the death of his website with the scent of the electronic music festival, which attracts tens of thousands of visitors every year. He expressed his condolences to the family and the close to the deceased young man and visitors, if necessary, pointed to psychological assistance – directly at his team at the festival or continuous telephone line.
The Red Cross informed that during the three -day festival, which took place from Thursday to Saturday, a total of approximately 720 people treated.
