Children hurt as Looe land train tips over in crash

THREE children were injured when a land train "tipped over" during a crash. The Looe Land Train was carrying multiple passengers when it overturned while at an event at Tregoad Holiday Park on Wednesday night.

Emergency services, including a Cornwall Air Ambulance and two Coastguard helicopters, rushed to the scene at around 7pm. Devon and Cornwall Police has confirmed seven people, including three children, were taken to Derriford Hospital following the incident.

None of their injuries are believed to be critical or life-threatening. Emergency services discharged a further 11 people from the scene with either minor or no injuries.

The cause of the incident is currently unknown and Looe Land Train said an investigation is ongoing to determine what happened. It is understood that no other vehicle was involved. Devon and Cornwall Police has asked any witnesses who have not yet spoken to officers to please get in touch.
