At least 16 killed in Brazilian pre-Carnival party

http://www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/americas/02/28/brazil.carnival.accident/index.html#

On a sunday night in Bandeira several died because of power line burst over a party truck, electrocuting many. They it may be caused by people throwing coiled party ribbon into the air. The ribbon may have had a metallic element to it, officials said. Sixteen people were declared dead at the scene, and those injured were transported to hospitals in critical condition. I just find this ironic because they probably came to the festival with the intention to have fun and live their life but died while enjoying it.
