MISSOULA, Mont. — A girl was hurt at the Western Montana Fair on Thursday night when she fell from a carnival ride, the Missoulian reported.
The girl, who police said was 11 or 12, fell from the Typhoon ride between 6:30 and 7 p.m., Sgt. Jim Klawitter told the newspaper.
She was taken to the hospital, the Missoulian reported. Klawitter said her injuries were serious but not life-threatening.
Fair officials closed down the ride after the incident “so that inspectors can figure out what happened,” Klawitter told the newspaper.
The fair runs through Sunday.
