A teenage girl was injured when she fell off of a moving golf cart in a housing development west of Salina.
Saline County Undersheriff Brent Melander said this morning that just before 12:40 p.m. Thursday a 13-year-old boy was driving a golf cart in the area of Scenic Slope Road and West Slope Road when a number of young teens jumped on the back.
As the golf cart was in motion on Scenic Slope Road, a 14-year-old girl fell off the back and began to convulse, Melander said. Once the girl was able to speak, she complained of pain in her right shoulder and right hip. She also sustained road rash, Melander said.
The girl was transported by EMS with what at this time appears to be non-life-threatening injuries, he said.
The boy who was driving said he didn't realize so many people were on the back, according to Melander.
