Burning Man is a city of 68,000 temporarily erected in the desert for a week every August. Like any city, it has its share of traffic fatalities. This year there was another as a woman was run over by the fur-covered double-decker bus, Shagadelic, according to Burners.Me:

Pershing County officials have identified the victim of Thursday morning’s deadly bus incident at Burning Man. According to a press release from Pershing County authorities, Alicia Louise Cipicchio — a 29-year-old resident of Jackson, Wyoming — suffered fatal injuries early Thursday morning after falling under a large vehicle at the annual Burning Man event in the Black Rock Desert in northern Nevada.Event officials, including representatives of Black Rock City, the Bureau of Land Management, and Pershing County Sheriff’s Office express their condolences and sympathies to the family, friends and campmates of the victim. Support is being provided to those affected by the tragedy.
