Woman, two sons injured by falling arch at Govt House fair for Children's Day - The Nation

Woman, two sons injured by falling arch at Govt House fair for Children's Day - The Nation: A 35-year-old mother and her two young sons were injured at Government House yesterday when a wooden arch erected as part of National Children's Day festivities collapsed on them.
A gust of wind toppled the arch onto the three at 3.25pm, as they rested behind the structure in the front yard of the Santi Maitree Building. Khon Kaen mother Chutima Ploenwong was knocked unconscious and suffered a back injury, while sons Jessadaporn Khomsing, 10, and Anucha Khomsing, 7, were hurt.

PM’s Secretary-General Suranand Vejjajiva visited the three at Mission Hospital and said his office would take full responsibility for their care. He said Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra had expressed concern about the three and ordered a fact-finding committee be set up to probe what caused the accident within three days.
