“Around 17:00 (local time, 18:00 Greek time) there was an accident in a swimming pool during a performance. Five artists and two visitors were injured,” German police said. “Three of the injured were taken to a hospital”, he points out and adds that an investigation has been launched to ascertain the circumstances under which the accident occurred.
Seven people were injured in an accident today during a performance at one of Germany’s largest amusement parks, the famous Europa-Park in the city of Rust in Baden-Württemberg.
According to radio station SWR, the accident occurred when part of a stage erected for the purpose of a show called “The Return of the Pirates” collapsed.
On June 19, a fire broke out in Europa-Park, forcing the authorities to evacuate 25,000 visitors and workers. The fire was attributed to a “technical problem”.
The theme park is located just outside Freiburg in southwestern Germany, near the French border. It opened its doors in 1975 and receives nearly 6 million visitors each year, according to its owners.
