CASA GRANDE, Arizona (KNXV) — A 2-year-old boy has died after he was swept away in a bounce house south of the Phoenix area last weekend.

The incident happened Saturday evening in Casa Grande.

Officials with the Pinal County Sheriff’s Office say several children were playing in the bounce house when a strong gust of wind carried the inflatable away and into a nearby lot.

A 2-year-old boy was taken to a hospital where he died, officials say.

A second child was also taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

PCSO says the incident appears to be a “tragic accident.”
