Seven-Year-Old Dies After Bouncy Castle Blown Away by Strong Wind
A seven-year-old boy lost his life when the inflatable bouncy castle he was playing on was lifted by a sudden gust of wind. The incident happened at a youth football tournament in Hamme, Belgium, as the boy watched his older brother play. The child collided with a fence after being thrown across the field. Emergency responders rushed him to two hospitals, but he tragically died a few hours later. Three other youngsters were also injured and received medical care. Local authorities have launched an investigation to determine if the inflatable was properly secured and if safety rules were followed. Clubs and neighbours have sent messages of support to the boy’s family and suspended fixtures as they mourn this heartbreaking loss.
