11 injured, 3-year-old girl dead after bounce house accident

MONTREAL (CBC/CNN/CNN Newsource/WKRC) - Multiple people were injured and a child was killed in a bounce house-involved accident. A three-year-old Canadian girl has died after a bouncy playhouse was lifted into the air by strong winds during a community event in Montreal, authorities said. The girl suffered critical injuries in the incident Sunday when powerful gusts picked up the inflatable structure while people were inside, officials told CBC. She later died from her injuries. Eleven other people were injured in the accident, though authorities have not released details about the severity of their injuries. Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident, including whether criminal negligence may have contributed to the girl's death. Officials have not identified the victim, and no charges have been filed. The investigation remains ongoing.
