A roller coaster has crashed at a UK themepark Alton Towers yesterday.

The accident appears serious, an empty train rolled back, and a train occupied with passengers continued through a block brake and collided into the empty train.

There have been no deaths reported but it is said that a man has lost his leg. Four people are said to be in a critical condition.

The ride took almost four hours to be evacuated.

This is my local park (I live in the UK) and its all over the news at the moment. Its very sad but fortunately no one was killed however its been said one of the riders has had life changing injuries.

The ride was the Smiler in Alton Towers
