Canberra, Five children have died and four are being treated in hospital, with some critically injured, after a bouncy castle accident in the Australian state of Tasmania, police said.

The wind picked up a bouncy castle and threw it into the air at an end-of-year activity day at a primary school in Devonport, in the state’s north-west, Tasmania.

“Several children fell from a height of about 10 metres around 10 am and are currently receiving medical treatment at the scene, as well as in hospitals,” the statement added.
