Today there was a incident on Slammer, causing a emergency stop on the ride. Then the ride slowed down as quickly as possible then the ride and riders were stranded upside down. The ride did start to make its way to the normal posistion but very slowly. The engineers and several team leaders & Security along with managers and medical team came along, the ride eventuly started to make its way to the normal posistion and the riders started to lower. The guests got of fairly quickly. They were offered bottles of water and the medical team were offering to help. They had the area around Slammer closed off for a small amount of time. Then just the area around the ride remained closed.
This was caused by a unknown piece falling off the ride.
