Deaths at Burning Man are being investigated – participants stuck in the mud

The normally very dry and sandy desert festival Burning Man in Nevada, USA, has become a mud puddle this year. The nine-day-long festival in the desert received unusually torrential rain in the final days.

Police are investigating a death in connection with the rains during the festival, reports BBC.

Toilets at the festival are out of order and festival goers have been asked to conserve food and water as it could be days before they can leave the festival due to the mud.
