Lake Delton in Wisconsin is a colossal and famous park but its big slide was closed to the visitors when the incident transpired. Even though the park has a lot of huge outdoor water slides, Lake Delton Police said the boy and his three friends entered the restricted area, without them noticing.
They entered the restricted area of the Theme Park and Mt Olympus Park on Wednesday night (Dec. 21), the reports from TCPalm said. The three boys entered the restricted area and attempted to ride the enormous slide covered in snow.
