"The ride had nothing to do with this. The ride is functioning properly. The sheriff's office, along with fire and rescue, did an investigation," Chief Jeff Johnson with the Clay County Sheriff's Office told First Coast News.

Police added that Lee became trapped after attempting to retrieve someone's personal property. They also said the incident was not due to a ride malfunction.

"The man went down to get another person's hat and I guess the floors, or whatever, had went down on him and pinned him in," witness Keirra Peterson told First Coast News.

"I didn’t really expect that, I never thought that since that boy the other week that fell off that ride. I didn’t think I would experience another ride misfunction," Peterson added.
