A collision between two roller coaster cars injured 31 people.
Thirty-one people were injured, one seriously, in the accident of two roller coaster trains in the Legoland amusement park in Germany, Bavarian police announced on Thursday.
Two small trains carrying up to 20 people collided when the first train was at a standstill and the second failed to brake sufficiently “for an undetermined reason” and rammed it, police said in a press release.
Among the injured are ten children, a teenager and a 20-year-old, according to the same source. A total of sixteen people had to be hospitalized but no details were given on the condition of the seriously injured person.
The accident occurred early Thursday afternoon in the Legoland amusement park in Günzburg, Bavaria. It presents itself as one of the best known in Germany with its 64 attractions, including the “roller coaster” carousel for thrill seekers.
