A fan was injured at Adele's show in Scotland Friday night, March 25. While the singer belted out her hits on the stage at Glasgow's SSE Hydro, a chain fell onto the audience from the ceiling and hit one concertgoer who was later rushed to the hospital.
A spokesperson of the venue explained in a statement that the chain was part of the production. "[The chain] came down and hit one person who was taken to hospital as a precaution. We are liaising with the production crew to ascertain what happened. This is all we know at this stage," they said.
According to Heart Scotland News, the injured fan was a woman and she was escorted out of the venue while covered in blood. The site also shared on Twitter some pictures of the chain in question.

Adele was apparently unaware of the incident, so she continued her show. But when she found out about it later, she immediately issued an apology via Twitter. "I'm so sorry to hear that someone got hurt at my show tonight. It's being investigated to ensure it won't happen again," so she wrote.
