Oasis says its members are “shocked and saddened” after a man fell to his death during one of its concerts at London’s Wembley Stadium.

The Metropolitan Police force said officers and paramedics responded to reports of an injured person just before 10.30pm local time on Saturday.

It said a man in his 40s was found “with injuries consistent with a fall”. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police urged anyone who saw what happened or had footage of it to get in touch.

“We are shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of a fan at the show last night,” Oasis said in a statement, offering “sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved”.

“It was horrendous,” a witness told the Daily Mail.

“The guy fell from a balcony. Paramedics came rushing over. There was a lot of screaming and shouting.

“It was a big fall. God knows how it happened. It was so tragic. I don’t know how on Earth it happened.

“It was heartbreaking. He was only young.”

The Britpop icons’ first tour in 16 years kicked off on July 4 in Cardiff, Wales. Saturday’s concert was the fourth of seven planned shows at Wembley.

Stadium management said Sunday’s gig would go ahead as planned.
