BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - The state Fire Marshal's Office spent two days completing a final inspection of the Xtreme roller coaster in Baton Rouge, which was closed July 11 following the death of a Lafayette woman.
The Advocate reports state Fire Marshal Butch Browning said in an e-mail Thursday that he hopes to have a report on the investigation in two weeks.
Lindsay Zeno, 21, died after falling 30 feet from the roller coaster at Dixie Landin' amusement park.
Zeno's parents have sued the park, claiming Dixie Landin' failed to properly inspect and maintain the roller coaster and failed to secure the locking mechanism necessary to hold Zeno in her seat.
