Around 12:15 a.m. on Sunday, two Miami-Dade Fire Rescue units went to Hard Rock Stadium, 2269 NW 199th St., Miami Gardens, where tens of thousands of fans were watching their favorite acts perform, a spokesperson for the department told the Miami Herald.
Police in Miami-Dade County say that Jordan Petrocchi was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital Saturday night while at the Rolling Loud Festival at the Hard Rock Stadium northwest of Miami. While officials wait for the results of the lab report, they don’t know what caused the death.

“His friendly personality and contagious smile always made those around him feel better. “Jordan had an undeniable effect on all of our lives, whether he helped a friend out when they were in trouble or just made everyone laugh,” a message posted to the fundraiser said.
Petrocchi’s friends, Jackson Kroger as well as Brandon Black, have set up a GoFundMe campaign to pay for his burial and help his mother.
