Eight-year-old falls from a pram: father tries to save him, seriously injured is taken by helicopter

An eight-year-old boy suffered serious injuries after falling from a ride at the popular Bleiburger Wiesenmarkt fair in Austrian Pliberk on Sunday afternoon. The child slipped under a safety barrier during the ride and fell from the attraction, despite the barrier reportedly being properly secured according to previous findings. His father tried to stop him but was unable to reach him in time. Rescuers initially treated the boy on-site before airlifting him via helicopter to a regional hospital in Celje. The police have launched an investigation into how the child managed to slip through the barrier, even though it was deemed secure. Inspectors examined the ride and spoke to witnesses but did not find any technical faults. The attraction was reopened shortly after the incident, but the police continue their investigation.
