CARLSBAD, N.M. (AP) – A New Year’s Eve dance in
southeastern New Mexico has been postponed after a supply truck carrying the
party’s alcohol crashed.
Lucy Yanez told the Carlsbad
Current-Argus that the truck carrying the mixed-drink supplies had
an accident on its way to Carlsbad from Albuquerque.
The fiesta was scheduled to take place New Year’s Eve at
the Civic Center Annex in Carlsbad.
Party planner Rick Serrano says he was thinking of rescheduling
the party anyway due to the bad weather, and the supply truck accident only
confirmed the cancellation.
Serrano says the dance will have the same start time and
bands, but the festivities have been rescheduled to Friday.
