A second child was airlifted to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.The incident was reported at 9:21 p.m. County emergency services personnel were already at the game, and, along with team trainers and volunteer first responders who were also in attendance, tended to the children.“We extend our deepest empathy to the children and their families during this difficult time,” Charles County Government Commissioner President Reuben Collins said in a statement. “We thank our EMS team and the Maryland State Police for their swift actions to ensure the children received immediate care.”The bounce house had been set up at Regency Furniture Stadium, where the Blue Crabs play, to entertain kids during the game, NBC Washington reported. The gust of wind carried it over a wall and onto the field, the station reported.Witnesses said the bounce house had been secured by stakes hammered into the ground, according to the station.In a statement, Southern Maryland Blue Crabs General Manager Courtney Knichel said the team “shares our condolences with the family mourning the loss of a child, and concern for the child who was injured. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all.”The team, which plays in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, canceled all baseball activities, including its Saturday night game, and is offering support to families, players and fans who were in attendance Friday night, the county said.
