Universal Studios Hollywood Sued Over Harry Potter Ride Incident

Four passengers claim severe injuries after being stranded midair for over an hour during a power outage.

Four individuals are suing Universal Studios Hollywood after being stranded on the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride for over an hour, claiming severe injuries.
The lawsuit alleges negligence, liability, and the infliction of emotional distress due to the ride's abrupt halt and the prolonged period the plaintiffs were left hanging in the air.
The incident occurred during a power outage in Los Angeles, which affected multiple rides at Universal Studios.
Plaintiffs claim the park failed to provide proper backups like generators in case of a power outage and to warn customers of potential rolling power outages.
Debra Biane, one of the plaintiffs, required significant medical treatment, including surgery, as a result of the incident.
