Generator issue shuts down The Wheel at Icon Park

ORLANDO, Fla. — A popular Orlando attraction was in the dark Tuesday night following an outage.

The Wheel at Icon Park did not light up and sat still due to a generator issue, an Icon Park employee said.

Nobody had to be rescued off the attraction, officials said.

It took about 10 minutes for the power to kick back on and bring people down from The Wheel before it was shut down again.

The ride is still not running as officials review what happened.

Other attractions such as the Starflyer remain running.
