Travis Scott concert: Woman, 23, died in crush as her brother tried to save her

The last victim of the eight who were killed in a deadly stampede during a Travis Scott concert has been named and pictured.

Tragic Madison Dubiski, 23, died as her younger brother Ty tried to pull her to safety before she disappeared into the crowd, it was reported.

More than a dozen people were rushed to hospital as eight people died in the crush at the Astroworld music festival in Houston, Texas, on Friday night.

A 14-year-old boy was among those killed, and a 10-year-old was also hurt, officials said.

Festivalgoers described the chaos as people surged to the front, with footage showing fans dancing on ambulances trying to reach those hurt.

She had been a high school cheerleader, the Houston Chronicle reported.
