Guests injured by damaged Center Parcs water ride

Guests at a Center Parcs resort suffered injuries due to a broken section of a water ride.

A section of the Wild Water Rapids in the Subtropical Swimming Paradise area of the Sherwood Forest holiday park near Edwinstowe in Nottinghamshire was damaged on Monday.

Visitors using the ride were treated on site by first aiders for minor injuries, said the holiday firm.

The ride and outside pool were closed "as a precaution, following further investigation" but have since reopened apart from the damaged section, it added.

Center Parcs did not say how the damage had been caused to the ride.
