The boy band initially cancelled two dates in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Albany, New York this week , but now all the concerts have been axed, reported Billboard magazine.

"I'm really disappointed this injury has made it impossible to continue with this tour. The first couple shows were just magical. We will truly miss not being with our fans for the next few weeks. Hope to see you again soon," Bennington said in a statement announcing the news.

The statement did not specify how Bennington injured his leg, though it said the injury "requires immediate medical attention". Refunds will be offered for all remaining tour dates.
