What Happened at Ricky Martin’s Concert in Montenegro?
On Thursday, May 21, Ricky Martin performed to a sold-out crowd in Montenegro. While the concert was underway, someone in the audience threw tear gas, causing people in the front rows to begin dispersing.
As a precaution, the show was halted. Ricky Martin left the stage along with some of his musicians, while others covered their faces to avoid contact with the gas, which causes irritation to the eyes, respiratory tract, and skin. Róndine Alcalá, the Puerto Rican singer’s publicist, issued a statement detailing the unfortunate situation.
