(FOX) -- Colorado police on Monday said an 8-year-old boy has died after being struck by a church-sponsored float during a Labor Day parade.
The incident happened during the Windsor Harvest Festival parade about 20 miles southeast of Fort Collins. Authorities and witnesses say the boy was a participant on the float and the incident occurred near the end of the parade route.
“We were watching them, and the next thing you know, you just hear shrieking and screaming,” one witness told The Greeley Tribune. “The mom was just frantic, of course, just screaming and crying.”
