Astroworld lawsuit says air in victim's lungs was 'literally slowly squeezed out of him'

A new lawsuit was filed Tuesday on behalf of 125 Astroworld attendees, including Axel Acosta, who was killed. The suit says "the air in his lungs was literally slowly squeezed out of him" in the crowd surge.

The lawsuit says one victim's body was crushed and trampled by concertgoers, squeezing the air out of his lungs before he entered cardiac arrest.
