The family of Ezra Blount, the youngest victim of the 2021 Astroworld Festival tragedy in Houston, has reached a settlement with rapper Travis Scott, Apple, LiveNation, and other companies, a lawyer says. This settlement comes on the heels of similar agreements in nine other fatality lawsuits related to the event. Ezra was killed in a crowd surge that also injured hundreds. A trial date had been set for September 10, but attorney S. Scott West confirmed the settlement was reached. This marks the final wrongful death lawsuit settlement related to the deadly concert.
