The Gallagher brothers have spoken out after an Oasis fan tragically died at one of their London concerts last week.

The pair have been travelling the UK as part of their reunion tour since June - 15 years after Liam and Noel first bitterly parted ways in 2009.

After completing a series of gigs in both Cardiff and Manchester, the brothers arrived in London last month ahead of a string of performances at Wembley Stadium.

During a sold-out concert on Saturday evening (2 Aug), however, a fan in his 40s reportedly fell from the upper level of the arena.

According to the BBC, both the Metropolitan Police and paramedics from the London Ambulance Service rushed onto the scene at around 10:19pm in response to reports that a man had been injured after falling from a significant height.

A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said that the man had been 'found with injuries consistent with a fall', and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The police representative also said they 'believe it is likely a number of people witnessed the incident, or may knowingly or unknowingly have caught it on mobile phone video footage'.

They also added that the investigation into the incident would be passed to the Health and Safety Executive in the next couple of days, and have encouraged anyone with information to contact the force.

Another concert-goer sitting in a lower tier wrote on social media - as per The Guardian - that she witnessed paramedics attempting to revive the man after seeing him fall.

"I was directly underneath in section 211," the unnamed woman said. "At first glance I thought it was a coat falling from the above tier but then I looked and saw the bloke on the concrete.

"It was horrific to see."

Liam and Noel have since addressed the shocking incident in a statement issued on Sunday (3 Aug): "We are shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of a fan at the show last night. Oasis would like to extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the person involved."

A statement from Wembley Stadium was also released, which read: "Despite [medics efforts, the fan very sadly died.

"Our thoughts go out to his family, who have been informed and are being supported by specially trained police officers."

Despite the heartbreaking incident, Oasis' Sunday evening concert went ahead as planned.

The Gallagher brothers dedicated their fan-favourite track 'Live Forever' to 'all the people who can’t be here tonight' during the latter performance.

"This one’s for all the people who can’t be here tonight, but who are here if you know what I mean," Liam, 52, told crowds.

"And aren’t they looking lovely. Live Forever."

He and Noel, 58, will now travel to Edinburgh for three shows on 8, 9 and 12 August.

Afterwards, the rock n' roll pair will tour the US, Mexico, Japan, South Korea and Australia, before ending in South America in November.
