The incident occurred at approximately 2:35 p.m. yesterday, Wednesday, August 24, 2016, as Tina Werner, 59, of Felton, DE was on the Go Ape Aerial Rope Adventure Course in the Lums Pond State Park, located at 1068 Howell School Road, Bear.
Werner was standing on a platform located approximately 35' above the ground, waiting to descend on a zip line. It was at this point that she fell from the platform to the ground.
First aid and advanced life-saving efforts were then rendered to Tina Werner by Go Ape employees as well as Park Rangers. She was then treated at the scene by New Castle County Paramedics before being transported to the Christiana Hospital by ambulance where she was pronounced dead. Her body was then turned over to the Division of Forensic Sciences where an autopsy will be performed.
The investigation into this incident is still on-going at this time, however, foul play is not suspected.
