Three children and a woman were taken to a hospital after being jolted on a ride Thursday afternoon at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, authorities said.

Gurnee Fire Department Battalion Chief Robert Heraver said the incident occurred about 4:30 p.m. on the Orbit ride. He said no one was seriously injured.

“As the Orbit was coming to a stop, they described it as a little bit of a sudden stop,” Heraver said.

Great America spokeswoman Brooke Gabbert said the ride was reopened for the rest of the day after the inspection.

“It’s operating normally,” Gabbert said. “And we’ve had no other complaints from people today.”
