GARDEN CITY, Idaho — A minor was injured while riding the Viper on opening night of the Western Idaho Fair.
Neighborhood Reporter Brady Caskey spoke with Sean Butler of Butler Amusements Inc., who said a faulty sensor caused the ride to go out of balance.
Butler says the minor received a small abrasion on the ride, but returned to the fair with her family to ride other attractions the next day. She was treated on-site by Ada County Paramedics.
Bulter Amusements Inc. has ordered new sensors with plans to replace all sensors on the ride. The Viper is expected to reopen on Tuesday.
