Stampede at church killed at least 20

At least 20 worshippers were killed and 16 others injured in a stampede at a church service on Saturday evening at a stadium in northern Tanzania, local police said. A group of worshippers packed a stadium in Moshi, a town at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, and crushed each other as they rushed to get anointed with oil offered by Pastor Boniface Mwamposa. "The stampede occurred between 7:30 pm and 8 pm on Saturday as worshippers rushed to doors of the stadium where the anointing oil was placed, causing the mayhem," Salum Hamduni, Kilimanjaro regional police commander said.
