The Fourth of July is a day of celebration, but still we have to remember to be safe and secure.

In Oklahoma, a shockingly devastating accident rattled up a little town when a dad ran over his 8-year-old boy with a float followed by a trailer.

The kid fell from the float or jumped off. The float was being driven by the father as part of a trailer that sponsored the town’s local martial arts program, AKA Karate. The 8-year-old boy was run over by the parade trailer in the Fourth of July accident, and despite immediate assistance from the crowd, was unable to be saved. A nurse in another float allegedly administered CPR after the father realized what had happened, and the boy did have a pulse while being loaded in to the ambulance.
