Carnival worker fatally struck by Scat ride in NY - WSJ.com

Carnival worker fatally struck by Scat ride in NY - WSJ.com: NEW YORK — A spinning amusement ride whirled into a worker's head and killed him as he stood underneath it at a carnival on New York's Long Island, police and festival organizers said Sunday.
A few weeks into his job with ride owner Zorlenzan Amusements, Michael Austin, 22, ducked under the Scat ride Saturday evening at the Feast of Mother Cabrini festival in Brentwood, Suffolk County police and his employer said. Austin was apparently trying to take care of something related to the ride's music, they said.
