TOPEKA, Kan.— A water park company owner Kansas authorities accuse of deciding on the spur of the moment to build the world’s tallest waterslide and rushing its construction without proper engineering advice,was ordered held in a Texas jail without bond Tuesday in the 2016 decapitation death of a 10-year-old boy on the ride.

Jeffrey Henry, the 62-year-old co-owner of Texas-based Schlitterbahn Waterparks and Resorts, was booked into the jail in Cameron County, Texas, on suspicion of murder, aggravated battery, and aggravated child endangerment.

A judge Tuesday ordered that he be held in without bond pending extradition to Kansas.

Henry’s arrest on Monday followed a Kansas grand jury’s indictment last week of the Schlitterbahn park in Kansas City, Kansas, and its former operations director, Tyler Austin Miles, on 20 felony charges. The charges include a single count of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Caleb Schwab in 2016. Miles has been released on bond.

The indictment in Miles’ case alleges that Henry made a ‘‘spur of the moment’’ decision in 2012 to build the world’s largest water slide to impress the producers of a Travel Channel show.
