Although serious it appears to not be that serious.

FÅRUP: Wednesday around noon. 14.45, an employee in Fårup Sommerland land was hit by the Orkanen roller coaster.

The employee had gone into the field to retrieve a bag when the accident happened.

The person was hurt, but is conscious. It informs Fårup Sommerland in a press release.

- It is of course contrary to all safety rules that an employee enters the track area while the roller coaster is running. We are currently investigating what can be the reason for an experienced employee to go in there, says Søren Kragelund, Director Fårup Summerland.

The employee got prompt medical attention, as there was a doctor among the guests in the park. At the same time Fårups first-aiders and park management was on site within minutes.

It also called a crisis psychologist for the guests as well as the employees who have been affected by the accident. Employee's relatives have been informed.
