At least 23 people were injured when two gondolas on a Ferris wheel caught fire at a music festival in Germany, a news agency has reported.
The fire at the site near Leipzig, in the east of the country, started in one gondola and spread to a second on Saturday night, police said.
Four people suffered burn injuries and one suffered injuries from a fall. Others, including first responders and at least four police officers, were being examined in hospital for possible smoke inhalation, the news agency dpa reported.
The incident happened at the Highfield Festival at Stoermthaler Lake.
Police were continuing to investigate the cause of the fire, and were unable to provide concrete information about the condition of the people injured.
The exact number of casualties had also not been determined, dpa reported.
The operator of the Ferris wheel told dpa that no passengers had been sitting in the gondola in which the fire started.
