Germany's beloved "Love Parade" music festival has ended in chaos and tragedy. 

The world-famous gathering, known for its dance-filled celebrations and odes to techno, turned deadly Saturday when 20 people were crushed to death during a stampede. 

While details are scarce regarding what exactly caused the deadly dash to a tunnel at the event, it is believed attendees rushed there when police told them that a portion of the festival grounds had been closed off due to overcrowding, according to New York Times

Reports indicated that of the 1 million-plus people who turned out for the event held in Berlin, 200 people were injured.
