AN OPEN-AIR CONCERT by Puerto Rican music star Bad Bunny was cancelled in Milan on Saturday due to a violent hailstorm.
Video images posted on social media show large hailstones hitting concertgoers, along with strong winds and heavy rain.
The storm began shortly after the singer began his set at Milan’s Snai La Maura Hippodrome, which has a capacity of 80,000 people.
