Video footage circulating on social media captured the moment of pandemonium as the ride’s mechanical structure failed, causing it to strike the ground while in motion. Two young girls sustained minor injuries in the incident and received immediate medical attention.
Authorities have launched an investigation to determine the exact cause of the mechanical failure. The probe will assess whether the park was in compliance with mandatory safety standards and if required maintenance procedures were strictly followed.
