Police have said the death is not suspicious, but a post-mortem will be carried out within the next 24 hours. Paramedics worked on the youth for over an hour in the festival campsite from 5.15am, but the unnamed individual was pronounced dead at 6.20am.
There were 500 crimes over the course of the weekend, including an indecent assault on the Friday night, for which one person was arrested. Police are urging the victim who originally came forward to get back in touch.
Carrying out random searches, police found 164 people to be in possession of illegal drugs (perhaps they would have more luck venturing backstage?), although the huge majority of reported crimes were for personal theft (from tents) and also for deception (people selling forged or stolen tickets). There were also nine reported assaults.
Out of over 65,000 people attending the event, only 60 arrests have been made, and a spokesman said that it had all gone “very smoothly.”
