The Kansas Department of Health and Environment says visitors to a splash park near Wichita may have been exposed to two additional bacterium.

The Wichita Eagle reported that the department on Friday added coliform and E. coli to the list of bacterium possibly encountered by patrons of Tanganyika Wildlife Park's splash park. The state health department had previously reported three people who attended the park tested positive for Shigella. That number is now at six. The state health department said people who visited the splash park also have tested positive for the norovirus, sapovirus and a type of E. coli.


The splash park has been closed since June 19.
