Rollercoaster passengers were showered with blood after a deer stumbled onto the track of Europe’s longest rollercoaster and was hit by one of its carriages.

The wild animal had managed to get over a perimeter fence at Lightwater Valley theme park near Ripon in North Yorkshire.

It was hit reportedly decapitated by one of the carriages of The Ultimate, which hurtles through the forest for over one-and-a-half miles for seven minutes at speeds of over 50mph.

The £5million ride, which was opened in 1991 was closed after the accident on Sunday morning but no-one was injured.

A spokeswoman for Lightwater Valley said: “We can confirm a young deer did unfortunately get hit by The Ultimate train yesterday and was killed instantly
