Boy killed at Iowa amusement park was ‘trapped’ by seat belt, parents say

The parents of an 11-year-old boy who died on a water ride in Iowa said Tuesday they were helpless in trying to save him — because they were trapped by their seat belts.

David and Sabrina Jaramillo detailed the freak Saturday accident on ABC’s “Good Morning America” that claimed the life of their 11-year-old son, Michael. The family was on the Raging River water ride at Adventureland Park in Altoona on Sunday when their raft overturned, trapping the family and the couple’s niece.
