Riders Get Unexpected Jolt at Cedar Point


Sandusky, OH (WWJ)  -- A close call for some riders at Cedar Point.  

A spokesman for the theme park told WWJ that a car on the Wild Cat ride suffered what's known as a "roll back," meaning the car didn't make it up the initial hill on the track Friday night--and rolled back down, slamming into some other cars.  

Nine people were taken to a first aid station at the park.  No one was seriously injured.

The incident was described as "highly unusual" by park officials.
