Police say operator error likely caused tower accident at Dells

Posted | Contributed by redman822

The Lake Delton police chief says the accident at the Dells Extreme World tower, where a 12-year-old girl fell to the ground, is likely the result of operator error. He said the net had not been raised off the ground and the platform had not been raised to the correct height.

The girl's father, a doctor, assumed she was dead when she hit the ground, but brought her back via CPR.
