Beyoncé sponsored the entire cost of organizing a charity concert in South Africa (video)

Revellers were targeted by thieves as they left the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Tens of thousands flocked to the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on Sunday for a music festival also featuring Usher, Pharrell Williams, Oprah Winfrey and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.

But muggings tarnished the Global Citizen Festival: Mandela 100 event, which campaigns for girls’ education and an end to extreme poverty. Many members of the audience got tickets to the concert through charity work.

While the majority got home safely afterwards, others were targeted by thieves as they left the stadium.

“The criminals were basically having a field day,” said Zikhona Tshona, a reporter for the South African news organisation eNCA.

“People’s bags are getting snatched, people are losing their phones, people are fighting in the midst of us looking for an Uber,” a reveller said in a video posted on YouTube.

The Global Citizen and another group backing the concert, the House of Mandela, said it was “saddened to hear the challenges people had while leaving the venue.”

It said it urged South African police “to act swiftly and efficiently.”
