INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.-The state of Indiana has agreed to pay 5 million dollars to the victims of this month's stage collapse at the state fair.
This is in addition to the donations from a fund set up just days after the deadly accident. Wednesday, the State Fair Commission announced it hired Kenneth Feinberg to help distribute the money.
Feinberg was a part of the compensation efforts for 911 families and last year's BP oil spill.
