By Ashley Cocciadiferro Staff Writer

Nearly a month after an accident on an N.C. State Fair ride that resulted in five people injured and two arrests, answers still have not surfaced. The accident, which occurred on the Vortex ride, happened Oct. 24. The ride operator, Timothy Dwayne Tutterrow, 46, was arrested Oct. 26 and has been in custody of Wake County police since. He made his second court appearance on Monday. Tutterow’s bail was reduced from $225,000 to $100,000, but his three charges of assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious bodily injury remain, according to the Associated Press. Capt. Jimmy Stevens, spokesman for the Wake County Sheriff’s Office, could not comment on the details of the case. “It’s in the district attorney’s hands,” he said. Also according to the Associated Press, public records of the safety inspections and investiga- tion of the Vortex ride were seized by the Wake dth/natalie hoberman County Sheriff’s Office. Students and faculty gather on the Morehead Planetarium lawn on Tuesday before releasing balloons in honor of the students who have died.
