COLUMBUS, Ohio — Funeral services have been held for a teenager killed when a spinning and swinging amusement park ride broke apart at the Ohio State Fair. Family and friends gathered in Grove City on Tuesday for the services for 18-year-old Tyler Jarrell. Police officers and U.S. Marines were there to honour Jarrell, who had recently enlisted in the Marines. The funeral was at Grove City United Methodist Church in the city about 10 miles (16 kilometres) south of Columbus. ——This story has been corrected to show the teenager’s surname is Jarrell, not Jarell.
