Organisers of a UK Christian festival said they are "devastated" after a sign fell at their event and injured seven people, with one man dying at the scene. Sussex Police said it had been called to the Big Church Festival in West Sussex, at about 15:38 BST on Friday. It was later confirmed a 41-year-old man from Eastbourne in East Sussex had died. The Big Church Festival, which describes itself as the UK's biggest Christian festival, was due to continue until Sunday - but a decision was made by organisers to cancel the remainder of the event after the incident.
