Three people hurt when log ride malfunctions at California amusement park

“We responded to a call that said an individual was trapped on the log ride underneath one of the cars,” Capt. Brian Guzzetta with the Riverside City Fire Department told the television station. “When we arrived on scene, we noticed that one of the rides had malfunctioned.”

The three family members were thrown from the log-shaped car when it reached the bottom of a water slide, Riverside City Fire Department Battalion Chief Bruce Vanderhorst told KTLA.

The ride was shut down, but the park remained open, Guzzetta told KNBC.
