Minor injuries have been reported after the Bounce drop tower at Oakwood theme park was emergency stopped.
The Welsh park said that the issue was a “programmed” stop, which caused “minor” back pain in guests.
“During operation today our drop tower ride Bounce experienced a programmed emergency stop procedure in response to the ride drop height.
“The stoppage of the passenger gondola was attended to by our park team and the ride was lowered to the ground where guests were able to disembark.
“A number of guests reported minor lower back pain immediately after the occurrence and were attended to by our onsite team of first aiders, where assistance was provided.
“One group sought additional treatment locally, whilst others continued their day at the park.”
Oakwood said that it had closed Bounce as it moves to consult manufacturers Huss.
