Perry leapt off the stage to help people to safety, an eyewitness told BBC radio.

"We just saw this thing falling on us and ran," an eyewitness said. "Luke Perry was quite gallant. I saw him a few rows back into the stalls looking very concerned and trying to usher people. There was a lot of confusion."
