🎢 Excitement turned into a scare at Pembrey Country Park last Sunday night when a toboggan ride mishap sent two thrill-seekers to the hospital. An eyewitness waiting in line described the heart-stopping moment of hearing a scream from the tracks, signalling that something had gone wrong. Apparently, one toboggan collided into another due to a malfunction. 🚨
Quick to respond, Carmarthenshire Council’s first aider was on the scene, with paramedics and police not far behind. While two individuals were whisked away for medical attention, their condition hasn’t been updated as of yet.
The police have confirmed their presence was more about assisting the situation rather than investigating any wrongdoing. They have since wrapped up their involvement, leaving the case for the council to review.
For now, Pembrey Country Park is welcoming visitors as usual, although the toboggan ride is temporarily shut down as a safety precaution while officials dig into the details of the incident. 🎿
