AT least 100 people have been injured in a stampede during Halloween celebrations in South Korea.
Authorities in Seoul say dozens of people collapsed and went into cardiac arrest after being crushed by a huge crowd pushing along a narrow road.
Police said around 50 people were being given CPR on the streets of Itaewon while many others have been taken to nearby hospitals.
It is understood there were around 100,000 revellers in the area celebrating Halloween when the horror surge happened.
More than 400 emergency workers from across the country rushed to the scene close to the Hamilton Hotel – a popular party spot in the city.
