CASTLE ROCK, Colo. โ€” One adult and one child were in critical condition late Sunday after being involved in a zipline collision at a park in Castle Rock.

According to Castle Rock Fire and Rescue, a collision happened just after 6 p.m. on a zipline at Philip S. Miller Park off of Plum Creek Parkway west of I-25.

Three people were taken to a hospital with injuries, including two children at or under the age of 10, according to CRFR.

When medics arrived at the scene, the three people involved were no longer on the zipline and were on a platform of the zipline park.
