Funfair carriage not secure, says father

THE father of a young mother catapulted out of a fairground ride yesterday claimed her carriage was not secured when it took off.

Danny Flynn described the terror experienced by his daughter Sonia, 29, who along with her own daughter Megan, eight, her friend Nicole, nine, and another young girl, 13, underwent on the nightmare ride.

Sonia, a mother-of-four, was at the Blanchardstown fair, Dublin, with her partner and children when the fun-filled day went horribly wrong. Sonia, Megan and Nicole stepped into the ‘Superbowl’ ride on Monday and were joined at the last minute by a 13-year-old.
