The first of several premises liability lawsuits have been filed over the stage collapse at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis earlier this month. The collapse occurred just before a Sugarland concert and left 6 dead and 40 injured.
The devestating accident has officials investigating safety regulations at parks and similar locations. The stage collapse was the third incident of the summer in the U.S. involving an accident at an ourdoor music event.
The Indiana Occupational Safety and Health Administration will be involved in investigations into the accident because multiple event workers were killed and injured in the stage collapse.
