Hot air balloon knocks over radio tower near Balloon Fiesta Park
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — A hot air balloon knocked over a radio tower west of Balloon Fiesta Park Friday morning.
The balloon hit a KKOB radio tower sometime after 9 a.m. at 10511 Second Street NW. It was able to keep flying and no one was injured.
Balloon Fiesta Spokesperson, Tom Garrity, told KOB 4 the balloon snapped a guy wire and the tower collapsed.
