Short story:

On the last night of The Cure's North American tour, at a concert in The Forum, Los Angeles, California, USA, a fan called Jonathan Moreland jumps on stage and stabs himself several times, because he has been jilted by his girlfriend. The audience cheers enthusiastically, assuming it all to be part of the show.

Full article:

Sgt Norman Brewer (police officer) : Moreland thought the crowd were cheering him on and, as the crowd grew louder, he stabbed himself deeper and harder.

Jonathan Moreland : I tried to commit suicide because I won’t ever be able to have the woman I love.
