Boy, 6, drowns in river rapids ride accident
(Wednesday, July 5, 2006) - At Parc Astérix in Plailly, Picardie, France, a 6-year-old boy drowned after he fell from his raft on a river rapids ride called 'La Descente du Styx.' Witnesses say that the boy stood up in the raft before the ride had ended, and was knocked into the water when another raft gently collided with his raft. Two people dove into the water immediately in an attempt to rescue the boy, but their efforts were hampered by the ride's artificial waves. The boy's body was found 20 minutes later.
The ride has been closed pending an investigation.
