Ride is stuck and people are on it

State Fair officials confirmed that the same ride, El Nino, was pulled from the Washington State Fair last year after a deadly accident at an Ohio fair in 2017 involving a ride called the "Fire Ball." Officials say that was because parts for El Nino were delayed after the Fire Ball accident in Ohio, in which one person was killed and several were injured.
