The Africa Cup of Nations is an international football tournament – founded in 1957 – which is held between African national football teams.
Naseri Paul Biya, who serves as governor of the central region of Cameroon, told AP that authorities were still assessing the death toll. AP later reported, citing a preliminary report by the local health authorities, that as many as 8 people lost their lives in the incident. At least 40 injured people were reportedly taken to a nearby hospital.
A nurse at the hospital revealed that “some of the injured are in desperate condition” and would have to be evacuated “to a specialized hospital.”
