“As electronic music fans are recovering from another year of the Ultra Music Festival, Miami’s mayor is calling for the three-day music fest to be scrapped after a security guard was trampled at the event on Friday night.

According to WSVN, Erica Mack, 28, remains in critical condition after she was trampled by a crowd that pushed down a fence at the festival.

Yesterday, as festival goers attended the final day of the event, Miami Mayor Tomas Regalado pledged that Ultra won’t be in Miami in years to come, WSVN reported.

“It’s time to say goodbye,” he said. “We are bringing a resolution to the City Commission. If approved, the city will deny the permits for next year. We’d rather take quality of life instead of money.”” [FOX]
