Via TMZ:

 The monster truck had just completed routine trick — where it drives over several parked cars — when it veered left, taking out a guard rail and dozens of spectators who were standing behind it.

The mayor of the town where the event took place told media that 3 people were killed — including one child — and 15 other people were injured.

One of the event organizers told local news he believes the problem could have stemmed from one of two things — either the gas pedal got stuck or the brakes failed. The driver is reportedly being questioned by police.
