Witnesses report that U.S. private military contractors used dangerous crowd control tactics including tear gas, causing a deadly stampede among thousands of Palestinians seeking aid.

According to the Brentwood Police Department, officers were dispatched Friday afternoon to the Streets of Brentwood, an outdoor mall on Sand Creek Road. They received reports that a "large preplanned gathering" was taking place there, and over the course of the afternoon police said over 300 juveniles "from outside the area" arrived in cars and rideshare vehicles.

At a time of celebration, this unfortunate event should not have happened. We are saddened by this. No one expected this crowd.
