The bouncy castle tragedy that happened on Friday in Australia has claimed a sixth victim after an 11-year-old boy.
In a statement, Tasmania Police Commissioner Darren Hine said, “11-year-old boy, Chace Harrison, passed away in hospital this afternoon .”
“Our thoughts continue to be with his family, and the families and loved ones of all the children involved, during what is an incomprehensibly difficult time,” Hine continued.
Harrison was one of nine children who fell 32 feet from a bouncy inflatable castle that was lifted by strong wind during an end-of-year event at Hillcrest Primary School in Devonport, on the northern coast of the state of Tasmania.
In total, six children have died in the tragedy. Two other children remain in critical condition in the hospital, while another is recovering at home, police said.
