A Florida woman has filed a lawsuit against SeaWorld on allegations she was injured last year when another person crashed into her on a water slide at Aquatica. Melissa Velazquez was at SeaWorld in Orlando on June 23, 2023, when another adult "violently collid" with her on a water slide before she was able to stand up and exit the area, according to the lawsuit obtained by FOX 35 Orlando.
Velazquez claimed the theme park was negligent during the incident because "there was no employee and/or lifeguard on duty" at the water slide when she was hit, according to the lawsuit. The court documents claim Velazquez was physically, emotionally and mentally injured following the collision.
The lawsuit claims "the losses are either permanent or continuing, and Plaintiff will suffer the losses in the future." Velazquez is seeking over $50,000 in damages and a trial by jury, FOX 35 reported.
