    One man is in custody after an accident at a Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans injured at least 21 people, five seriously, officials said.

    Police Chief Michael Harrison said it appeared the suspect, who was driving a pickup truck that hit two cars before running into the crowd, was likely highly intoxicated. Among the injured, the youngest is 3 and the oldest are in their 40s.

    None of the injuries was life-threatening, officials said.

    The incident occurred near the intersection of Orleans and Carrollton Avenues where the Krewe of Endymion parade was underway.
