A woman has been left with serious injuries after being flung through the air by a ride at Hull fair.
Two rides have been shut down at the event, with the woman reportedly thrown from a spinning 'Airmaxx360' attraction.
Police have cordoned off the area following the incident, which took place at around 8pm on the second day of the event.
It’s believed she fell from one ride onto the base of a nearby attraction where she sustained her injuries, striking a teenage boy on the ground in the process.
Humberside Police confirmed he only sustained minor injuries in the incident, while the woman has been taken to hospital to receive treatment.
