This year, roughly 30,000 Burners will descend on Black Rock City for the most transformative week of their lives. But if you don’t already have a ticket to Burning Man 2016, odds are you won’t be one of them.

A woman died at Burning Man early Thursday morning after reportedly falling under a bus carrying participants, according to law enforcement officials. The woman has been identified as Alicia Louise Cipicchio, a 29-year-old resident of Jackson, Wyoming.
Burning Man organizers are working with law enforcement investigators from the Pershing County Sheriff’s Office and will provide more information as it becomes available. The Pershing County Sheriff will release information after the conclusion of family notification and investigation.
