  • Story Text: Dozens of Indonesians were injured or lost consciousness when scores of youths lost patience and barged through gates set up for a concert by rock superstars Bon Jovi in Jakarta on Saturday (May 6).

    Dozens of mainly teenage girls were trampled on during the rush late on Saturday that demolished one of three gates leading into the Ancol open-air entertainment centre near Jakarta's main Harbour.

    Dozens of others fainted from the heat,that left the estimated crowd of 100,000 bathed in sweat for the once-only show.

    The casualties were rushed to nearby emergency medical centres but there no serious injuries.

    Newspapers on Sunday reported the concert was marred when hundreds of male teenagers tried to gatecrash the show and threw bottles into the main arena. They were chased off by anti-riot police .

    No arrests were reported
