Child, 3, dies from injuries after “horrific” bouncy castle incident in Montreal

A three-year-old girl has died after being injured when a bouncy castle was lifted into the air by strong winds during a community event in Montreal over the weekend. The Quebec coroner’s office confirmed the child’s death on Tuesday, with the office confirming Martine Lachance would conduct an investigation into the causes and circumstances surrounding the death. Emergency crews were called to Ouellette Park in Montreal’s LaSalle borough on Sunday shortly after 4:30 p.m. after witnesses reported that the inflatable structure had been swept up by gusts with children inside. Witnesses described the chaotic scene, saying the bouncy castle rose dozens of feet into the air before being thrown back to the ground, with one person saying it may have flown 30 to 40 feet high.
