Homecoming week is supposed to be a time where students gather together to show their school spirit. In Stillwater, Oklahoma, where the Oklahoma State University Homecoming Parade was taking place, it was interrupted when a 2014 Hyundai Elantra crashed first into a parked police motorcycle, then crashed into a crowd of people. It has previously been traveling southbound on Main Street before the accident.
