GOLDEN, Colo. (AP) - A float in the Colorado School of Mines homecoming parade collapsed, injuring at least 10 people.
Golden Police say the incident occurred about 9:50 a.m. Saturday when the pickup truck towing the float turned a corner and had a problem with the hitch, causing the trailer with the float to bounce and collapse.
About 30 people belonging to a fraternity and sorority were on the float at the time.
Eight people were taken to a hospital for treatment of injuries, another two went to a hospital on their own. Others were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
Police say the most serious injury was a broken bone.
