Employee's head lacerated by amusement ride

Employee #1 was operating the King Frolic ride. He had just loaded the passengers and started up the ride when he noticed a child climbing over the fence. He went to tell the child to get down when he saw that the child was headed toward the moving ride. Employee #1 ran to the youngster in time to prevent him from being struck by one of the ride's tubs, but in doing so, was struck on the back of the head. Employee #1 sustained deep lacerations that required 30 stitches to close.
