Twelve guests were on board when the ride stopped just after 7 p.m. The attraction, that opened in 2009, reopened on Thursday morning. The ride was stuck for more than two hours. All of the passengers were safely removed from the ride.

Park officials said a glitch caused the computers to go into safety mode, stopping the ride.
