LIMA, April 4, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - At least one person died and 47 more were injured Friday night in an unspecified "incident" at Alejandro Villanueva Stadium in Peru's capital during a rally ahead of a football derby, according to the health ministry. "There has been an unfortunate incident at the stadium in which 47 people have been injured...and sadly there is one fatality," Health Minister Juan Carlos Velasco told media, without specifying the cause of the incident.
