Car­ni­val cel­e­bra­tions in San Fer­nan­do were marred yes­ter­day af­ter a mu­sic truck crushed a 74-year-old rev­eller to death on Cipero Street.

Sel­wyn Lit­tle, a pen­sion­er, was hold­ing a ban­ner for Jam­merz In­ter­na­tion­al, a sailor band, in front of the truck around 4.10 pm when the brakes failed as the ve­hi­cle came down an in­cline.

The truck struck him and then rolled over him.
