UPDATED 8:50 p.m. ET: A spokesperson for Travis Scott confirmed the rapper and his team have contacted the injured fan and his family to express their concern. The team is receiving updates on the individual's condition while they investigate the matter. 

"The safety of everyone is held in the highest regard and we are currently conducting an internal investigation to ensure that this does not happen again," the representative told Complex via email. "We are deeply concerned about the guest who was injured and intend to offer him our support."

A source close to Travis told Complex the artist had engaged with the crowd earlier that night, instructing audience members to create a "safety net" for people jumping off the second-floor balcony. No one was reportedly hurt during the initial jumps, but after the fan who leaped from the third level was injured, Travis is said to have stopped the show so the individual could receive medical treatment. The source said the team is trying to determine if the fan jumped or was pushed.

Travis Scott, the current undisputed champ of shows that are punk as all fuck, brought his Birds Eye View Tour to New York City Sunday night. As social media footage of the Terminal 5 performance shows, the set—which also included a surprise appearance from Playboi Carti—was a truly energetic affair.

In one clip, Scott is heard assuring a fan that those in the pit will catch him if he makes the move from balcony to floor. After crawling most of the way down, this individual ultimately made the leap:

Additional video from Scott's birthday Birds Eye View performance in NYC shows other fans also boldly relocating from the balcony to the floor:

There's also footage floating around alleging to show a fan who jumped from the third floor of the venue and injured himself. However, reports of injuries have not been confirmed:

Scott is seen in another clip giving his ring to a fan:

In an interview with XXL back in January, Scott expressed his excitement to bring Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight on the road. "I feel like I pop out more," Scott said. "I'm seeing , like, real reactions and it's crazy. You know, I've always been on those tours, The Weeknd and Rihanna. It's kinda like a mix of fans. So, when I finally did my own tour, it's finally seeing these kids fuck with me. It's kind of dope."

Scott, who recently appeared in SZA's new Nabil-directed video for "Love Galore," next brings his Birds Eye View experience to Stage AE in Pittsburgh Tuesday. Get the full dates here.
