An off-duty firefighter was at the scene and informed the Crandon Fire Department of the possibility of assisting with the rescue.

Special equipment and rescue teams were called in to help unload passengers because the roller coaster was stuck at a height. During the rescue, passengers waited 45 minutes for a ladder truck with a 31-meter platform to arrive.

Firefighters from three towns came to help the Crandon Fire Department rescue roller coaster passengers.

The first passengers rescued from the roller coaster arrived on the ground at 3:20 p.m. local time, about two hours after emergency crews were dispatched. Meanwhile, the last rescued passenger arrived on the ground at 5:01 p.m. local time, more than three hours after the roller coaster stalled.

Following the stuck roller coaster incident, nine passengers received emergency medical treatment, while another passenger was taken by ambulance to Aspirus Rhinelander Hospital.
