Wind carried a bounce house into the air before it crashed to the ground in New Hampshire yesterday, leaving two toddlers injured. 

According to CBS Boston, the incident occurred at Nashua, N.H.'s Sullivan Farm Greenhouse and Orchard. Local fire officials reported say the bounce house traveled as high as 60 feet in the air before tumbling to the ground, leaving the children, ages two and three, trapped inside. 

The two-year-old boy suffered critical injuries and was airlifted to Tufts Medical Center, while the three-year-old was transported to St. Joseph's Hospital after sustaining non-life-threatening injuries. The bounce house was purchased for a fundraiser by farmer Gary Bergeron, who said it was off-limits and out of official use for safety reasons. Bergeron is still unsure of how the children got inside of it. 

CBS Boston adds that an investigation into the matter is ongoing.
