Twelve people got stuck on a roller coaster in Hong Kong’s Disneyland, prompting emergency services to respond to the park to get them freed, officials said.
More than 40 police officers and fire service crew members responded to the park at approximately 3:16 pm local time after the Hyperspace Mountain ride stopped working, leaving its passengers in a position that required emergency assistance.
“As a safety measure, the ride control system was triggered to stop the attraction. One of the vehicles, carrying 12 passengers, was stopped in a position requiring fire department assistance,” a Disney spokesperson told Reuters.
The passengers were safely removed within an hour, a fire services representative said. No injuries were reported.
