A spokeswoman for a Louisville amusement park said one person was injured Thursday during a ride at the park.

Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom spokeswoman Wendy Goldberg said the accident happened around 4:45 p.m. on the Superman Tower of Power.

Goldberg said the extent of the injury was unknown.

WAVE-3 television in Louisville reported the victim was a 13-year-old girl whose legs were severed during the ride.

The ride takes passengers straight up 177 feet before a free-fall of 154 feet, reaching a speed of 54 mph.

Goldberg said it's unclear at what point during the ride the person was injured.

The victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

Louisville EMS said it could not comment on the extent of the person's injuries due to privacy laws

Someone said a cable snapped and hooked her legs. But this seems odd as that everyone else was ok... What was this cable?

Looks like the media has her age from 12 to 16...
