'Abrupt Interruption'
After pausing his show in Montenegro as authorities contained the situation, the star returned "in order to fulfill his commitment to his fans"
Ricky Martin was performing in Montenegro on Thursday night when his concert was suddenly interrupted by someone spraying tear gas toward the stage, the star’s representative said in a statement.
Although the singer temporarily left the stage as a safety precaution, he returned to finish the rest of the concert after authorities “confirmed that the situation was under control and that attendees could safely return.”
“During Ricky Martin’s concert tonight in Montenegro — where the artist was kicking off the European leg of his Ricky Martin Live tour — an individual discharged tear gas toward the stage, causing an abrupt interruption of the show as audience members moved away from the area and received assistance,” read a statement shared by Martin’s publicist, Róndine Alcalá, in both Spanish and English.
