At least, eleven are confirmed dead and others about twenty in numbers were injured after a driver struck a crowd at a street festival in Vancouver, Canada.
People had gathered for the Lapu Lapu Festival, a Filipino community party, when the vehicle entered the street shortly after 8pm on Saturday, April 26, the police said on social media.
One witness can be heard screaming ‘oh my God’ in a video showing the aftermath of the crash, with another person shouting ‘there’s a baby over there! There’s a baby under the truck.’
The driver, thought to be a 30-year-old man from Vancouver, has been taken into custody.
Shocking footage on social media shows at least seven victims lying on a stretch of road with debris scattered around. Some of the people are not moving and appear to be bloodied.
A black SUV with a damaged front can also be seen at the scene.
