## Resource

A tragic accident at a Butte carnival claimed the life of 13-year-old Clayton Phillips after he was thrown from a spinning Yo-Yo ride. Though no criminal charges will be filed against Midway West Amusements or the ride manufacturer, Chance Rides, the investigation found no criminal wrongdoing — a devastating blow to the family and community. Civil lawsuits are expected to follow as attorneys prepare for legal action. This heartbreaking case underscores how quickly tragedies can unfold, even on seemingly harmless rides.
