‘Teen Misuse' Caused Funfair Ride Accident

An accident at a funfair which ended with six people being taken to hospital was caused by the “misuse of equipment” by several teens, the amusement park operator has said.

Three children were among those taken by ambulance after the incident on the Star Flyer swing ride at Planet Fun in Carrickfergus on Saturday evening.

Their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

Planet Fun said in a statement the equipment did not have any “mechanical defects” and the funfair in the Co Antrim harbour town will reopen to the public.

It added: “All sessions of Planet Fun will go ahead as normal.
