Accident
In July 2017, the Fire Ball ride broke apart at the Ohio State Fair, resulting in one death and seven injuries.[4] Following the incident, the operator of the fair ride, Amusements of America, settled multiple lawsuits with the victims of the incident, including settlements for 1.7 million and 1.3 million dollars.[5][6] As of 2019, an additional lawsuit against KMG has been filed by the victims, alleging that the ride manufacturer concealed a catastrophic defect that led to the tragedy.[7]
