Teenager drowns at Kladno Aqua Park

A teenage boy from Zimbabwe has drowned at an aqua park in the town of Kladno, near Prague. The boy's lifeless body was pulled out of one of the pools, where the park's guests and emergency health workers tried to revive him for an hour. The boy, who is believed to be around 17 years old, was part of a group of refugees' children who were visiting the park. Footage from a surveillance camera shows that the boy drowned as he came out of the Space Bowl - a large water ride in which the slider enters through a high speed enclosed AquaTube, lands on a bowl, and is then dropped into a splashdown pool.

This is the second death since the water park was opened three years ago. The first accident was in August 2005, when an eleven year-old boy also drowned at the Space Bowl attraction.
