Houston Police Chief Troy Finner says that reports of a security guard being pricked in the neck by a needle at the Astroworld Festival have turned out to be false.
Finner walked back the claim during a Wednesday briefing. Turns out, a blow to the head may have knocked out the security guard.
“Members of the medical team said that a male security guard had come in and said that somebody had pricked his neck,” Finner said at a press conference. “We felt that it could have been something ingested. We did locate this security guard. His story is not consistent with that. He says he was struck in his head. He went unconscious. He woke up in the security tent. He says that no one injected drugs in him.”
Finner originally told reporters on Saturday that a security guard attempted to restrain someone then felt “a prick in his neck” which resulted in medical staff allegedly having to revive the man with Narcan.
