Boy dies after being run over by Christmas float

9-year-old’s foot became caught in wheel; driver was his cousin


PLANT CITY, Fla. - A 9-year-old boy died after being run over by a church float in a Christmas parade.

Jordan Hayes was walking alongside the float, handing out beads and candy, when his foot was caught by a wheel and he fell under the float Friday night, said Police Chief Bill McDaniel.

Parade watchers shouted at the driver to back up, but the pickup truck pulling the Greater Heights Family Worship Center float ran over Jordan a second time. The driver, Jerry Bridges, is a cousin of Jordan, authorities said.

"This is a tragedy that defies words," McDaniel said. "This was supposed to be a time of celebration and joy, but it has turned into a terrible tragedy."


I can't believe no one heard the boy screaming or tried to stop the car.

Fred Claus should have been more careful..... he's not as experienced with the sled as Santa is.

That's just terrible; my prayers go out to his family, and may God watch over him always.

Ditto and what's crazy is that Plant City is close by and I didn't hear about this on the news.

Definitely a tragedy. That's horrible.
