Scary video.. A child fell from “Zipline” after his belt broke

A 6-year-old boy fell from a zipline after his belt came loose, in an accident that was documented in a video published by Fox News on Thursday.

J. Cesar Sauceda told Fox News that his brother sustained minor injuries while recovering from the accident, but that he was “psychologically damaged” and “scared.”

A government agency in Nuevo León has suspended several attractions in the recreational area after the incident.Officials said a government investigation into the incident was under way.
