Police: 4 dead, dozens injured after homecoming parade crash

TILLWATER, Okla. (KTUL) - UPDATE:
A representative from a hospital in Oklahoma City has confirmed to our sister station that a fourth victim has died.

Channel 8 is told that victim is a 2-year-old who died at the hospital.

A homecoming parade at Oklahoma State University turned tragic Saturday morning when a car plowed into a crowd, killing at least three people and injuring dozens more near the end of the event, police confirm.

Stillwater police say the driver, 25-year-old Adacia Chambers of Stillwater, has been arrested for allegedly driving under the influence.

Chambers was driving a 2014 Hyundai Elantra southbound on Main Street, when she crashed into an unmanned police motorcycle, then crossed the parade route, hitting a crowd of people, Stillwater police Capt. Kyle Gibbs said during a press conference. The crash happened around 10:30 a.m. It's unclear if it was an accident or intentional.
