MANCHESTER, Tenn. (AP) — Officials say a second person has died after attending the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, Tenn.

Coffee County Sheriff Stephen M. Graves said Monday 24-year-old Christopher William Yoder of Raleigh, N.C., died of hyperthermia early Sunday after being airlifted from the festival to Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga.

Graves said he is awaiting toxicology reports.

On Thursday, the first day of the festival, a 32-year-old woman was found dead in her tent.

Festival season is upon us. Be safe out there, friends.
