Tragic Halloween

Tragic Halloween
 
Through the streets of festive Seoul--


Ghosts replaced the youth!*

* In Seoul, South Korea, thousands of young people
filled the streets to celebrate Hallowing, today.  Unfortunately, 
more than 150 young people died, more than 120 are injured, and 
some 270 are missing because of a crowd crush. R.I.P.!
My condolences to the families of the victims.

Couldn't believe how many had died Demetrios, such a tragedy, all young people with their lives ahead of them. May they RIP, and the injured make a good recovery. Tom
