Fan reportedly dies at Bring Me The Horizon show

Bring Me The Horizon performed at Alexandra Palace in London, UK last night, and a young man reportedly died as the result of a fall in the pit. According to Griffin Dickinson, vocalist of UK rock band Shvpes, the fan was carried out of the performance portion of the venue and paramedics were unable to revive him. Dickinson had this to say today (via two tweets that he's since deleted):

"Last night at a BMTH show I saw a kid die. He was carried out by 3 dudes & paramedics tried to resuscitate him to no avail. Please please please look out for people around you."

An alleged friend of the man identified him as "Ali." We've been unable to confirm the incident thus far.

UPDATE: The deceased's name is reportedly Ali Mills, and we're being told that he died from a heart attack. Bring Me The Horizon has issued the following statement:

"Words cannot express how horrified we are feeling this evening after hearing about the death of a young man at our show last night. Our hearts and deepest condolences go out to his family and loved ones at this terrible time. We will comment further in due course."

The venue also released a statement on the matter:

A medical incident occurred at last night's Bring Me The Horizon concert. Our thoughts and condolences are with the individual's family and we would like to express our deepest sympathy to them. We hope you can appreciate we cannot provide any further comment at this time.

Last night at a BMTH show I saw a kid die. He was carried out by 3 dudes & paramedics tried to resuscitate him to no avail. Please please please look out for people around you. Don't leave it up for someone else. If someone looks unwell, CHECK on them... 1/2

In any situation, on a tube, at a gig, whatever. I feel like British 'awkwardness' gets in the way of helping people. Don't be afraid to call an ambulance. Don't act like it ain't your business. ACT on it. Rest in peace to that dude. Thoughts are with his family rn. ??

Still in state of shock.
Thank you to those who got him out, thank you to the medics who tried to save him.
Ali was a good friend of mine. I was supposed to be with him & friends at BMTH show but something came up. Absolutely gutted. Rest easy Ali. Love & miss you.

I'd appreciate if everyone had some respect for the loss of a young mans life. Paramedics did all they could and we are grateful for their efforts.
