Authorities say one person is dead and two others, including a 6-year-old, are hurt after a firetruck overturned near a school in Cottonwood, Minnesota, on Friday evening. 

According to the Yellow Medicine County sheriff's office, the crash was reported just after 6:30 p.m. Authorities learned the truck, which was the only vehicle involved, had turned onto its side in a west ditch along 490th Street near Lakeview School.

The sheriff's office says the Wood Lake firetruck had been headed north when the crash happened. Authorities added that the truck, as well as everyone inside, was participating in the events for Lakeview's Homecoming celebration. 

One of the three people inside was found trapped under the vehicle and died at the scene. That victim was identified as 43-year-old Patrick Remiger, of Wood Lake. 

The other two victims have been identified as a 37-year-old man and a 6-year-old boy. They were first taken to Avera Marshall Hospital, but were later flown to Avera Hospital in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Cottonwood is about 100 miles northeast of Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
