New Square: Inflatable Ride Flips, Injures 3 Children
Three young children taken to Westchester Medical Center; injuries are not life threatening, police said
Three children were injured in New Square this morning when an inflatable ride flipped over.
Three girls—ages 3, 4 and 6—were playing on the attraction on Washington Avenue when it turned over. All three were taken to Westchester Medical Center, and one is being treated for a head injury, said Ramapo Police.
Authorities said none of the injuries are life-threatening, and winds may have played a role in flipping the ride.
The inflatable ride was located on a blacktop as part of a Passover carnival in the Hasidic Jewish enclave. Last week, a two-year-old was struck and killed by a car in a New Square parking area.

Looks like it wasn't anchored, another cover up perhaps?
