Go-Kart Accident Injures 5 People In Detroit Lakes

DETROIT LAKES, Minn. (AP) ―

An accident during the Detroit Lakes Water Carnival Parade sends five people to the hospital Sunday afternoon.

A go-kart that was traveling in the parade flipped and went into the crowd. The injured include four children and one adult.

Police Chief Kel Kenna says the injuries aren't life-threatening.

The driver of the go-kart was driving for the El-Zagal Shrine Club. The driver wasn't hurt and submitted to an alcohol test, but police don't believe alcohol was involved. Police think the go-kart's accelerator got stuck.
