Other source says: (ap) "South Korean officials say dozens of people were in cardiac arrest after being crushed by a large crowd pushing forward on a narrow street during Halloween festivities in the capital Seoul."

Thank you, the BBC left that question begging. I was thinking maybe it was some kind of neurotoxin attack, mass hysteria, or something as yet unknown.
Except that it didn't: "Dozens of people are reported to be in cardiac arrest after a reported crush among crowds in a popular nightlife area of South Korea's capital, Seoul." (Not that that's what "begging the question" means anyway, but let's not go there! :)
