At least 34 people have been injured in a horror rollercoaster crash at a Legoland theme park.
The incident took place at Legoland resort in Guenzberg, Germany, after two trains were involved in a collision. Two victims suffered serious injuries and have been taken to hospital via air ambulance, the Mirror reports.
The "Feuerdrache" ride was reportedly involved - which can reach speeds of 18 miles per hour - with the crash occurring after one of the trains braked suddenly. It comes just one month after a 14-year-old girl died in a terrifying theme park accident in Denmark.
The terrifying incident happed at the Tivoli Friheden park in Aarhus with several people trapped up to 10 feet above the ground. Police rushed to the theme park at 12.50pm local time after reports that a rollercoaster car was stuck in the Cobra ride.
The two rear seats of the ride had broken away from the rest and were hanging under the wagon train, the park's manager, Henrik Olsen, told local newspaper Aarhus Stiftstidende. "A mother stood by the Cobra and looked up while she exclaimed several times 'my children, my children'," one worried witness said.
East Jutland Police confirmed that a 14-year-old girl from Copenhagen has died and that her relatives have been told. A 13-year-old boy sustained injuries to one hand, police said, and his parents have also been notified.
In a statement, the park said: "It's hard for us to put into words the tragic accident of today, where a girl lost her life and a boy was injured.
"Our heartfelt thoughts are with the girl and the girl's relatives, family and friends. Our thoughts are also with the boy, our staff and the many visitors at the park earlier today.
"We are cooperating with East Jutland Police and are now awaiting the technical investigations regarding the accident. A hotline has been established if you have been to Tivoli Friheden and need professional crisis help or are relatives on telephone."
