Car Plows Into World Cup Celebrants in Mexico, Injuring 17

A vehicle accelerated into a crowd celebrating Mexico's World Cup victory in the beach resort town of Cabo San Lucas on June 25, injuring at least 17 people. The car struck revelers before bollards—metal barriers—stopped it. Why the driver acted remains unclear. The incident reveals how hard it is to protect crowds that form spontaneously on streets, since organizers can't plan security ahead of time.
