DAP news reported as of 12:51 AM on 23 Nov 2010:
At Calmette Hospital: more than 100 dead, several hundreds injured
At Peth Lok Sang (Monk Hospital): 48 dead (including 31 women), over 300 injured
No number tallied from other hospitals yet.
As of 12:51AM, the situation has cleared up at Koh Pich after heavy police intervention.
The police asked that those who lost loved ones should visit Calmette Hospital because the victims have not been identified yet.
According to the victims, initially, 8 or 9 women selling beers ran back and forth to play with each other. Then they started shouting and causing panic among the revelers. Then everybody started to get out of Koh Pich, causing the jam and the ensuing stampede.
There is no bridge collapse at Koh Pich as was initially rumored.
