Posted by Megan Seling on Sun, Jun 17, 2012 at 12:51 PM
A man killed when a stage collapsed ahead of a Radiohead concert in Toronto, Canada, has been named as 33-year-old Scott Johnson, a drum technician from South Yorkshire.
A relative confirmed the death of Mr Johnson, from Doncaster, who worked for other British bands, including Keane.
Police in Toronto said the stage was being set up on Saturday when the top part of it collapsed on top of him.
The Foreign Office confirmed that Mr Johnson's family had been notified.
Three other people were injured, one seriously, in the incident at Downsview Park, medical officials said.
