A "monster truck" ploughed into a crowd of onlookers at an annual motor show in the east of the Netherlands on Sunday and killed three people.
The third death was announced on Monday and five are critically ill in hospital, following the event in Haaksbergen in Overijssel province.
Video footage shows the modified pick-up with outsized tyres driving over a row of cars as part of the show, but then veering off course.
"A so-called monster truck drove into a crowd of spectators. A terrible accident with two dead victims," town authorities said on their website on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the driver of the truck has been detained and an inquiry has been opened, police said, quoted by local media.
