Posted Sunday, June 29th, 2008 at 7:48 pm by Chip

The boy who was killed Saturday at Six Flags Over Georgia was identified as 17-year-old Asia LeeShawn Ferguson.

His parents were informed of the accident as they finished lunch at a picnic area outside the park.

Ferguson’s father said his family is waiting on the results of the investigation but that they are "not blaming the park."

An autopsy will be performed Monday.

Police said Ferguson and another teen tried to re-enter the park without going to the entrance. They hopped a fence surrounding the park, then hopped a fence around Batman The Ride.

Ferguson was decapitated by a Batman train.

Six Flags said there are warning signs on the fences.
