Spanish teenager dies on Disneyland Paris ride
PARIS, June 26 (Reuters) A rollercoaster at the Disneyland Resort Paris theme park was briefly shut today after a 14-year-old Spanish girl died on the ride.
The girl lost consciousness on the RockNRoller Coaster ride yesterday and efforts to revive her failed, Pieter Boterman, a spokesman for the park operator said.
Prosecutors said the girl's autopsy showed she did not seem to have died from trauma. Officials were investigating whether she had suffered from health problems before.
Boterman said checks on the ride had found that it was functioning normally. The ride reopened today afternoon.
