Two Women Fall Off of Disneyland Tram

The Los Angeles Times reported that two women were injured after falling off a tram in a Disneyland parking lot on Friday. A spokeswoman for the Anaheim Fire Department said one woman was standing on a tram in the theme park's "Timon" parking lot when she tumbled off as it turned. Another woman tried to grab her but fell off also. The first woman suffered minor injuries to her head and feet and the second, more serious head wounds, Maria Sabol said. Officials said one was discharged. Disneyland Resort spokesman Bob Tucker said the tram was moving at a speed of 5 mph.

According to the United Press International the first woman was standing up and fell off the trolley when it turned a corner. The women were transported to the UCI Medical Center in Orange, Calif., Disneyland Resort spokesman Bob Tucker said. Len Welsch, the agency's acting chief, said the accident does not fall within the state Department of Occupational Safety and Health's jurisdiction since trams are not considered amusement park rides.
