Two seriously injured after knife fight at festival

Four men have been rushed to hospital, two with serious injuries after a knife fight broke out in the VIP area of the Garage Nation Festival.

As mentioned in the tweets below, it is questionable why the knives weren't picked up as part of security checks, and as at least one of the men has 'life changing injuries' it is likely that a full investigation will take place to determine why they weren't detected on entering.

How the fuck can security guards not detect knives at a festival? Just read a story that four people have been stabbed at the Garage Nation festival in Hainault. More to the point - why do festival goers feel the need to take knives in the fucking first place?
