I just saw the report on this and I can’t even find anything on any news sites yet. But apparently a streetlight has fallen into the crowd at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and it seems as though 1 person has been injured. Best I could see was a streetlight on the ground and a bit of blood under it.

I’ll update soon.

Update: Apparently a woman was the one injured. More on her later.

Update2:According to my source Shannon & Channel 2 CBS news it was apparently 2 small children injured by the giant m&m Macy’s parade balloon.

Update 3: (from ABC News)

The girls’ father, Stephen Chamberlain, said Thursday night they were “doing fine” and that “we just count our blessings that they weren’t seriously injured.” He called it a freak accident and said the family had no plans to sue.

“Sarah is upset because she’s worried about the balloon,” he said. “It ripped and she wants to make sure that the balloons stay in the parade, and she wants that one fixed.”
