AG pushes back state fair settlement deadline

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Victims of a deadly stage collapse at the Indiana State Fair have more time to decide whether to accept money from the state as part of a settlement.

Attorney General Greg Zoeller is pushing back the deadline to August 1st.

Victims, including the families of the seven people killed, could get a portion of $six million in state money if they also accept a portion of a multi-million dollar settlement with the stage owner and manufacturer.

A storm toppled the stage rigging last August as hundreds were gathered for a Sugarland concert.
