Monster truck crashes into crowd in Popayan

At least two people were killed and ​a further 37 were ‌injured on Sunday after a monster truck plowed into ​crowds at an ​exhibition event in the southern ⁠Colombian city of Popayan, ​in the province of ​Cauca, the regional governor said.

Videos on social media showed a ​large monster truck clearing ​an obstacle but failing to brake ‌in ⁠time, causing the vehicle to veer off to the side and plow ​into ​spectators.

Reuters ⁠was unable to independently verify the ​footage. A Popayan city ​official ⁠said one of the victims was a 10-year-old ⁠girl, ​according to Colombian ​newspaper El Espectador.
