At least 16 dead in Carnival parade accident in Haiti by Jack O'Connor

During Haiti's national Carnival parade, an accident involving an electrical shock on 

a float killed at least 16 people. A video from the incident showed a power line 

striking a man standing on the float. 

This is something no one could have prepared for.  It's so tragic.
