Teen Killed As Ohio State Fair Ride Malfunctions

The autopsy report for an 18-year-old killed on a ride at the Ohio State Fair recently revealed that the teen died as a result of blunt force injuries to his head, trunk and lower extremities.

On opening night of the Ohio State Fair, the Fire Ball ride malfunctioned resulting in injuries and one fatality. The ride, which was inspected earlier, broke apart throwing a row of seats up into a support beam. An 18-year-old man was killed instantly; seven others were injured.

The ride’s manufacturer stated excessive corrosion on the interior of the gondola support beam eroded the beam’s wall and led to the “catastrophic failure” of the ride. As a result, the teen’s family filed a wrongful death lawsuit seeking answers that would help to save others from being killed or hurt due to dangerous or poorly inspected amusement park rides.

A wrongful death claim could take years to be resolved, leaving family members to deal with a serious financial burden. If there is no life insurance, savings, investments or other funding sources, plaintiffs may wish to apply for litigation funding or a “lawsuit loan.”

On being approved for a lawsuit loan the plaintiff is promptly relieved of the stress of having to find funds to pay for all their expenses. The loan also provides the family’s attorney with the time to build a case to secure fair and equitable compensation.

The financial situation of plaintiffs’ does not influence the application process for a lawsuit loan, litigation funding is based solely on the merits of the case. Apply for a lawsuit cash advance is simple and once approved the funds can be made available within 24 – 48 hours, by check or by wire.

If you or someone you love has been injured in an accident involving a defective product, the manufacturer may be liable for injuries sustained. Talk to an experienced attorney to discuss your potential claim. Litigation Funding Corporation offers no-obligation consultations and do not require repayment of the cash advance unless your case is settled or won.
