At least 20 people were killed during the Haiti Carnival in the early hours of this morning when they were electrocuted by a power line falling on their packed float.
The accident happened as thousands of people filled the streets of central Port-au-Prince, the Caribbean country's capital, for the raucous annual celebration.
Witnesses at the scene said someone on the float used a pole or stick to move a power line so the float could pass under it, but video appeared to show it striking the head of a singer riding on top.
