LAST NIGHT AT THE LEHIGH SPRING FEST, THIS RIDE TURNED INTO A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE WHEN IT BROKE DOWN WITH 5 PEOPLE INSIDE.

SOT: JOHN GARCIA, WITNESS "WHEN IT BROKE, IT TILTED MORE THAN WE THOUGHT. EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO FALL OVER, SHE WAS BLEEDING EVERYWHERE, HALF HER FACE WAS BLOODY.

THIS MORNING, STATE INVESTIGATORS WITH THE BUREAU OF FAIR RIDE INSPECTIONS ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED.

CHECKING EVERY WHEEL AND BOLT THAT MAY HAVE COME LOOSE. CAUSING THE RIDE TO MALFUNCTION.

The President started his day in Israel with a tour of the Iron Dome which is the missile defense system that the US government is actually funding a large part of.

"The United States of America stands with the state of Israel because it is in our fundamental national security interest to stand with Israel. It makes us both stronger, it makes us both more prosperous and it makes the world a better place."

The President today is going to be heavy with meetings with Israeli government officials including the President Shimon Peres and of course Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The two of them will have a joint press conference where no doubt the lead topic news of the day here in the region has to deal with Syria and this issue of chemical weapons.

Have they been used and who used them?

The Israeli government officials have been confirming that chemical weapons have been used, they're not sure who's used them the rebels or the Assad regime.

The United States government hasn't confirmed any of that but we will hear from the president, he has talked about the use of chemical weapons as a red line when it comes to Syria.
