Death at a Stampede
The New York Times
The prime minister of Phnom Penh, Cambodia announces that more than 180 people died at a water festival. Then as the group was crossing a bridge, a person fell off the side, causing trauma. This festival marks the end of the rainy season, and the death of many others. Being that Cambodia is one of the poorest countries, it will be difficult for the doctors to deal with this wide-spread death.
