One death has been reported at the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert.<\/p>\n

Due to heavy rain and flooding this weekend, thousands of attendees have found themselves ankle-deep in mud.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s thought 70,000 people are stranded, with authorities now investigating a fatality.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the Pershing County Sheriff\u2019s Office said it is \u2018currently investigating a death which occurred during this rain event\u2019.<\/p>\n

The person\u2019s family has been notified.<\/p>\n

No further details have been given about the circumstances of their death.<\/p>\n

Bad weather at the US festival has made the ground too slippery to even walk on, with roads surrounding the area closed as vehicles cannot drive on them.<\/p>\n

It could take days for the ground to dry up and become safe again, so attendees have been told to conserve their food, water, and fuel.<\/p>\n

Revellers have reported that the festival\u2019s toilets are also out of use, as the service vehicles cannot drive in the mud to empty them.<\/p>\n

The current state of the landscape is a stark contrast to the usual setting, as Burning Man is held in the Black Rock Desert, which is usually dry and dusty.<\/p>\n

Organisers of the event are currently doing what they can to try and get people to safety.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

They have arranged for buses to pick people up and transport them to the city of Reno, which is more than 100 miles away.<\/p>\n

Celebrities also descended on the music event, with the likes of Chris Rock and Diplo able to flee in fits of giggles.<\/p>\n

However, Victoria\u2019s Secret model Kelly Gale and her DC star fianc\u00e9 Joel Kinnaman found themselves stuck as they struggled to wade through the mud.<\/p>\n

The festival is due to end on Monday (September 4) with people urged not to travel there, as they will be sent away.<\/p>\n
