Eyewitness video captures the moment strong wind gusts caused a bounce house to flip over at a Washington state high school. Officials said five students were injured when the inflatable play area went airborne.
Several students were injured at a Washington state high school on Wednesday when strong wind gusts caused a bounce house to flip over.
The school did not specify the injuries, but local authorities said one victim was in critical condition and had to be airlifted from the scene. The students were tethered into the inflatable at the time. Witnesses said the incident happened during an Associated Student Body event on the school's football field. Video from just after the accident showed dirt swirling up near the field and people running toward the bounce house.
