I read some where it was a trike not a gyro as first reported. It might of been on the ASRA site will see if I can find it again.

It's not good news whatever way you look at it.

Fortunately though, it wasn't another gyro incident!

My sympathy to goes to those involved, I hope those injured recover quickly.
