Declaration was not immediately performed
Time: Saturday Apr 15, 1989 at 03 PM
Place: Hillsborough Stadium, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom
Details: The system of ferrying injured from any location within the stadium to the CRP required a formal declaration to be made by those in charge for it to take effect. As this declaration was not immediately performed, confusion reigned over those attempting to administer aid on the pitch. This confusion migrated to the first responders waiting in ambulances at the CRP, a location which quickly deteriorated into an ambulance parking lot. Some crews were hesitant to leave their vehicles, unsure of whether patients were coming to them, or vice versa.
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
