A woman died after falling 26ft from a moving rollercoaster in Germany, authorities have said.
The deceased, who has not been named, fell from a ride at the Klotti wildlife and leisure park in Klotten, Rhineland-Palatinate, at around 4.30pm on Saturday.
Koblenz public prosecutor’s office said it was not exactly clear how the 57-year-old woman, from St Wendel, Saarland, came free from the car.
Officials said she slid in her seat in a curve before falling from the track, which was about 8 metres (26ft) high.
Emergency workers responded but the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigators are now working to establish cause of death and an autopsy was due to be carried out.
