The enthusiasm of the crowd who came to watch the exciting race turned into screams of terror, when a huge explosion erupted, unleashing a giant flame that penetrated the truck.

Local authorities said one person was killed in the accident, according to the American “Fox News” network.

And local media revealed that the US Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the accident, with the participation of city authorities.
The Field of Flight, one of the largest aerobatic festivals in the United States, was scheduled to run until Monday.

The event promotes the Shock Wave Jet Truck as “the world’s most famous jet truck”, only to be charred during the parade.
