A massive fire engulfed a newly built water park in Gothenburg, Sweden, leading to the hospitalization of twelve people for minor injuries and one person reported missing. Authorities evacuated nearby buildings and are investigating the cause as a "workplace accident". The water park was part of an expansion of Liseberg Amusement Park and was set to open later this year.
A large fire broke out at the Oceana waterpark, a new addition to Gothenburg's Liseberg amusement park in Sweden, engulfing outdoor water slides and related facilities in flames. No guests were present, and no injuries were reported, but a hotel and offices connected to the park were evacuated, and households in the area were warned to remain indoors due to smoke. The fire started at one of the water rides outside the building and then spread to the entire structure, with live video showing slides being engulfed by flames while fire fighting vehicles surrounded the area.
