A man has been charged in connection with a knife attack at Thorpe Park in Surrey.
Craig Harakh, 26, is accused of causing grievous bodily harm and possessing an offensive weapon.
The victim, also 26, suffered a serious slash wound to his stomach during a row between two groups near the exit of the theme park.
Visitors at the attraction were placed in lockdown after the incident at around 5pm on 18 July.
Thorpe Park said it was investigating how a weapon passed through bag searches and patrols at the site off Staines Road in Chertsey.
The park operators also released a statement saying they had “never had any incidents of this kind in over 40 years.”
“The resort’s security team and fully trained medical staff were at the scene within minutes and administered immediate care until emergency services teams arrived,” a spokesperson said.
“The police were alerted immediately and the resort is co-operating fully with their investigations.
“The health, safety and security of our guests is our primary objective. We have an excellent security track record.”
Two men were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder on Saturday evening.
On Tuesday Surrey Police announced that Craig Harakh, 26, of Jeffreys Road in Lambeth, south London, had been charged with causing grievous bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon.
Mr Harakh is currently in custody and is due to appear at Staines Magistrates’ Court via videolink on Wednesday.
The injured man has since been discharged from hospital and is recovering from home, police said. Nobody else was injured.
