Ricky Martin’s concert in Montenegro was temporarily interrupted after an attendee released tear gas toward the stage. Multiple outlets report that the interruption occurred during the singer’s early European tour stop on Thursday (May 21), when the show was abruptly halted and Martin was led offstage while authorities responded to the incident. Rolling Stone and Billboard state that the situation was contained and that Martin later returned to continue the performance, while his publicist confirmed he was safe. The publicist’s statement, cited by several sources, says an individual discharged tear gas toward the stage and that Martin remained safe. The Los Angeles Times notes some uncertainty about whether the substance was tear gas or pepper spray, but describes it as a tear-gas/irritant incident. The event’s disruption is described as causing Martin to pause and exit the stage before the concert resumed and was completed. No further details about the person responsible or any injuries are provided in the materials summarized here.
