And this one in Tennessee..luckily, the riders are alive and responsive.
According to Greene County-Greeneville EMS Operations Director T.J. Manis, three girls 16 and younger fell out of the ferris wheel and were taken to Niswonger Children's Hospital in Johnson City. Two were flown via helicopter, and one was taken via ambulance.
Greeneville Fie Chief Alan Shipley said the fire department and Greeneville Emergency and Rescue Squad freed people stuck on the ferris wheel after it stopped. "We went up and brought some people down," he said. "We used our ladders."
He said the three people who fell were "thrown out" of the ferris wheel. When firefighters got to the scene, they saw the girls lying on the ground. EMS personnel were already working with them.
