According to RT, the 12-year-old brother of the boy who died was also injured in the incident and is currently receiving treatment at the Wisconsin Children’s Hospital. According to previous media reports, at about 4:39 pm local time on the 21st, the annual festival parade in Waukesha City was underway.
