Theme Park Accident At Camelot
Tue 30th Aug 11 - 10:05

A joint police and Health and Safety executive investigation is underway after a horrific accident at Camelot theme park.

A 12 year old boy plunged 30ft from the Excalibur 2 ride at the theme park and had to be airlifted to Wigan Royal Infirmary. Although his injuries from the accident are serious they are not thought to be life threatening.

The Excalibur 2 ride is 10 years old and is one of the theme park's most popular rides.

A spokesman for the theme park said, "We are in contact with the boy's mother and our thoughts remain with her and her family at this difficult time."

'The safety of visitors to the park remains our number one priority. Every ride undergoes a daily, pre-opening safety and maintenance check throughout the season and is subject to an annual, independent safety inspection."
