New Ulm - Boy dies after accident in adventure pool parking lot

A boy was run over by a van in the parking lot of a water park in Neu-Ulm and later died of his serious injuries.

He was in front of the van of a 38-year-old man when the car drove off. The boy fell and got under the vehicle, where he remained with serious injuries.

The boy was freed from under the car before the emergency services arrived. After initial treatment, he was taken to a clinic, where he later died.
