3 hurt when out-of-control monster truck crashes into stands in Oregon

An out-of-control monster truck crashed into the stands at a show in Oregon, injuring three spectators seated in the front row, authorities said.

Onlooker Dustin Earls captured video of the scene Saturday at the "Monster Air 2012" show in Harrisburg.

Earls told CNN he was watching the third drag race of the event when one of the drivers started heading for a mud pit in front of the seating area.

"The truck got a little wild and he hit the mud pit," Earls said. "I thought, 'This guy's just messing around; he'll hit his brakes right here.'"
