Fairgoers Catch, Save Toddler Dropped By Mom Dangling From Carnival Ride
'Little Girl Completely Dangling Outside Ride,' Witness Says

POSTED: 10:52 pm EDT October 4, 2008
PORT ORANGE, Fla. -- A group of fairgoers caught and saved a toddler who was dropped nearly 40 feet from a carnival ride as her mother dangled above the crowd.

"It was very scary witnessing the mother hanging from the ride with her daughter," witness Leann Craft said. "The little girl was completely dangling outside of the ride."

Sheri Pinkerton became trapped when the Crazy Bus ride at a carnival in Port Orange started up suddenly as Pinkerton and children were getting off the ride.

"I heard a bunch of screaming and I looked over and the school bus had started to go back up as the mother was getting off with her little girl," Craft said. "She was pretty much caught. She was half in and half out. Her leg was caught up underneath the ride and she was holding on to her little girl."
