Victims of 'Love Parade' stampede commemorated

A man reads notes left in a sea of candles in a tunnel July 28, 2010, near the site where 21 revellers died as a result of a stampede on the fringe of the "Love Parade" techno festival in Duisburg on Saturday. The Love Parade death toll rose by one to 21 Wednesday as Germans, who cherish order and organisation, struggled to understand how such a tragedy could happen in their tightly regulated country. A 25-year-old woman died from injuries suffered four days earlier in the stampede at the Love Parade Saturday, when hordes of young people pushed through a tunnel into the techno festival area at a former freight rail yard in Duisburg.
