CHICAGO (CBS) — Three people, including a three-year old child, were injured after a tractor ride rolled over at a popular pumpkin farm in the southwest suburbs.
There were 12 people on Hay Rack Ride at Bengtson’s Pumpkin Farm, 13341 W. 151st Street in Homer Glen.
The accident happened around 2:30 p.m.
Part of the trailer came loose and caused it to tilt because the trailer was on a slight incline, police said.
The three-year old girl was being treated for bumps and bruises.
The girl’s grandmother went to the hospital as a precaution after complaining of a stiff neck.
A 39-year-old man suffered back pain.
The 10 other people on the ride refused treatment and were walking around after the accident.
Bengtson’s is one of the most-popular Halloween attractions for families in the Chicago area.
Co-owner Dave Bengtson said it was the first time something like this has happened in about 35 years.
As a precaution the ride will be discontinued for the rest of the season, while they determine the cause of what happened.
