Carnival ride breaks, topples to ground
CHESTERTON | The Space Age carnival ride at Chesterton’s Fourth of July Festival broke Monday, sending one of the helicopter cars toppling to the ground, police said. The incident occurred three days after a Gary boy fell to his death during a carnival in Highland.
The fallen helicopter was then struck by the car directly behind it, but no injuries occurred because both cars were unoccupied, police said. There were children in some of the other cars, but they were gone when police arrived moments later to investigate.
