A second headline act at the Colchester Castle Summer Series brought a stop to their performance due to a medical emergency in the crowd.
JLS, the popular UK boyband, had to pause their concert at Colchester Castle Park last night after an audience member required urgent medical attention.
The group quickly halted the show, asked fans to make space, and left the stage while venue staff and medical teams responded.
A message appeared on the stage screens reading: "We need to stop the show for a few minutes and hope to restart shortly. Thank you for your patience. Music will resume as soon as possible."
The band returned to the stage after about five minutes and thanked the emergency services before continuing with the show.
Despite persistent rain, the crowd remained in good spirits, singing and dancing to hits including Beat Again, Everybody in Love, One Shot, Love You More and She Makes Me Wanna.
For those at Castle Park, the rain could not dampen the mood, only adding to the charm of an already memorable summer evening.
This is the second time a headline act at this years Colchester Castle Summer Series has paused their performance for a medical emergency.
