In a massive riot that resulted in a stampede in an Indonesia stadium, at least 131 football fans were reportedly killed, and another 180 individuals sustained injuries, according to law enforcement officials. 

According to Nico Afinta, police chief of the East Java Province, riots broke out as the match came to a close in Malang, Indonesia. The match was between Arema FC and Persebaya Surabaya. 

After Arema lost 3-2 in its home field, chaos erupted, with a stampede causing many cases of suffocation and leading to deaths, including two police officers who were trying to deter the crowd.
