The Oklahoma State homecoming parade turned to tragedy Saturday afternoon. Adacia Chambers, 25, crashed into a crowd of spectators Saturday, killing three people and injuring nearly two dozen others, per ESPN.
She was arrested on a DUI charge and taken into custody.
"We treat these like we would any homicide investigation," Capt. Kyle Gibbs said. "It'll probably take several days to get additional information as to the cause of the accident."
Oklahoma State University is saddened by the tragic parade incident earlier this morning. Our thoughts & prayers are with those affected.
