    Shanghai police denied reports that the melee was caused by people rushing to pick up fake money thrown from a building overlooking the city's famous waterfront. Police said on their official microblog that while closed-circuit television footage did show some bills had been thrown from a bar in a building overlooking the Bund, which a small number of people picked up, this was not the cause of the stampede.

    "For large-scale activities, security risk assessment and prediction are very important. The administrator has standards on such assessment before approving any activities held in public areas," Qin Liqiang, professor of Administration on Public Security at the People's Public Security University of China, told China Daily.

    "I am not so clear about the details of this accident on the Bund, but this tragedy surely tells that we need to strengthen the aforehand assessment, especially at some of the most risky spots where people are likely to gather and improve the execution of safety procedures," Qin said. "For such big event, we need to add more staff. Volunteers may also be needed in some important spots to work with police and other security teams."
