SANTA CLAUS, Ind. (WISH) — A 70-year-old man died Wednesday after experiencing a health incident at Holiday World, according to the Dubois County Coroner’s Office.
Coroner Katie Schuck confirmed Thursday morning the man was taken from the park to a hospital in Jasper, where he later died. The cause of death has not been confirmed pending autopsy results.
Holiday World did not confirm the death when reached by WISH-TV.
A park spokesperson issued the following statement:
“Guests are reminded to stay hydrated, enjoy free drinks (especially water and Gatorade), take breaks from the sun, and of course enjoy the water rides, slides and pools. Team members get extra breaks and are offered electrolyte popsicles to keep them fresh.”
Holiday World said its hours of operation will stay the same this week.
Schuck says an autopsy for the man is scheduled for Friday.
