CA: Family Injured in Amusement Park Incident

On Saturday, at Castle Park in Riverside, a family of three was injured–the mother critically–on a log flume ride.  According to reports, the ride malfunctioned and the family’s log flipped, throwing the family into the water:

“What it appeared is that there was no water flowing on the ride. There was a pump that had malfunctioned on the ride that caused that one car to come down the descent rapidly,” Fire Captain Brian Guzzetta told KTLA-TV.

Castle Park stated that each of their rides is tested every day.  USA Today has the story.
