A Woman Is In A Critical Condition After An Incident On A Ride At The Melbourne Royal Show

A woman has suffered critical injuries after being hit by a rollercoaster carriage at the Melbourne Royal Show, police say. A Victoria Police spokeswoman said the woman, who is believed to be in her 20s, may have walked onto the Rebel Coaster ride’s tracks at about 5:45pm to retrieve a dropped phone. “Sadly, the woman was then found injured on the ground,” she said. Melbourne Royal Show organisers have released a statement confirming an investigation was underway.

“We are working closely with the ride operator, WorkSafe Victoria and Victoria Police to investigate the issue further,” the statement said.

“However, we can confirm that no one has fallen from the ride.

A stall owner told The Herald Sun passengers were stuck on the ride for several hours.
