6th child dies after bouncy castle horror

-

A SIXTH child died in hospital yesterday after the Australian bouncy castle tragedy, as specialist police were set to start interviewi­ng survivors.

The children, aged 11 and 12, died when the inflatable at a school was struck by a gust of wind on Thursday, throwing it 30ft up into a tree and tossing the youngsters out.

At least one other is still in a critical condition. Tributes were laid at Hillcrest Primary School in Tasmania after the latest death was confirmed.

Child interview experts are expected to take weeks talking to survivors and witnesses given the trauma suffered.
