SANDUSKY, Ohio — Cedar Point announced a "female guest" was hurt Sunday afternoon after she was hit by a small object from a roller coaster.
A spokesperson for the amusement park said in a statement it happened at 4:30 p.m.
The guest was waiting in line for the Top Thrill Dragster roller coaster when the small metal object fell from a train as the ride was ending its run.
The park says the guest was hit and the Sandusky Fire Department and medics responded soon after.
She was later taken to a hospital, but the extent of the victim's injuries is unknown at this time.
"At this time, our focus is on the guest and her family," the park's spokesperson said.
