Crutches caused Ferris Wheel accident ?

Police on Saturday said crutches may have played a part in tipping a Ferris wheel cab that caused two Chelsea children to fall from a height of about 10-15 feet at the Chelsea Community Fair Thursday night.

The Ann Arbor News reported Saturday that a 16-year-old girl boarded the ride with crutches Thursday night at the Chelsea Community Fair. Investigators say they could have slid out and lodged in a way that caused the cab to tip.

The girl was with her 8-year-old brother, who has been released from the hospital. The girl has not.

Chelsea Police Chief Ed Toth says officers will speak with the girl before determining the cause.

Witnesses say one of her knees was bandaged before the accident.

The ride reopened Friday. Chelsea is about 15 miles west of Ann Arbor.
