MIAMI — Fairgoers at a central Florida carnival caught a 2-year-old girl whose mother was forced to drop her after they were both stranded 30 feet off the ground on a ride.
Paramedics also rescued the woman. No injuries were reported.
The “Crazy Bus” kiddie ride, which rotates like a small Ferris wheel, began to move as passengers were trying to exit Saturday, forcing Sherri Pinkerton to dangle by one arm while holding her daughter, Gracie, in the other.
She then dropped the girl, who was caught by fairgoers.
